Rock needs river

Rock needs river: a memoir about a very open adoption / Vanessa McGrady, read by the author, 182 pgs.

This memoir traces the author's childhood and family background leading up to the adoption of her daughter.  This is where it gets interesting because the adoption was "open" and the birth parents are a part of her life.  So much a part, they lived with her and the child for awhile after they became homeless.  Interesting in so many ways telling of the ebb and flow of the relationship between the new parents and the birth parents.  The audio version is very good.  I was reluctant to stop listening.
