Let Our Stories Be Your Support

We have published two books for adoptive parents.

Many of the stories in these books are filled with raw and powerful emotions highlighting journeys of unconditional love, courage, and self-discovery. Others are expert accounts that we hope will help you with forming a holistic understanding of the adoption journey. 

 For couples seeking to understand the challenges of adoptive parenting, you may consider reading our recommended book, Parenting the Hurt Child, by Gregory Keck and Regina Kupecky.

If any of these books are of interest to you, you may order them by filling in this book order form.  

Our Very Own
Our Very Own — $15

“Our Very Own”, the first book published by TOUCH Adoption in 2010, was probably the first-ever collection of real adoption stories from Singapore. It has inspired many families considering adoption since. Those who have adopted have also found comfort and encouragement through the heartfelt sharing of others in these stories.  

Our Very Own 2
Our Very Own 2 — $20

Published in January 2016, the sequel to “Our Very Own” includes articles that showcase the significant evolution of some families featured in the first book. It also features new accounts of those involved in the adoption process, from adoptees, birth and foster mothers, as well as adoption professionals.

‘Parenting the Hurt Child’ illustrates principles with true stories about children and their adoptive families. The book explains how to manage a hurt child with loving wisdom, resolve, success, and how to preserve stability while untangling a child’s thorny heart.
