    by Ying Ying Fry ; with Amy Klatzkin ; photographs by Brian Boyd, Terry M. Fry and Ying Ying Fry

  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st ed, Yeong & Yeong Book Co, 2001

  • Description

    In this first view of China adoption from a child’s perspective, eight-year-old Ying Ying Fry returns to her orphanage to remember what it is like and to write a story so that other adopted children will understand where they came from.

The Lost Daughters Of China : Abandoned Girls, Their Journey To America And The Search For A Missing Past

  • The Lost Daughters Of China : Abandoned Girls, Their Journey To America And The Search For A Missing Past

  • Attribution

    Karin Evans

  • Publication Details

    Book, J.P. Tarcher/Putnam, 2000

  • Description

    A personal and journalistic exploration of American and Chinese culture at a unique point of intersection: the thousands of baby girls who are abandoned in one country each year and adopted in the other. The story of how Kelly came to be there is rooted deep in China’s history, in an ancient political, economic, and cultural preference for baby boys that began in the time of Confucius and was still going strong when China’s notorious one-child policy was introduced in the 1980s.

Second Home : Orphan Asylums And Poor Families In America

  • Second Home : Orphan Asylums And Poor Families In America

  • Attribution

    Timothy A. Hacsi

  • Publication Details

    Book, Harvard University Press, 1997

  • Description

    As orphan asylums ceased to exist in the late twentieth century, interest in them dwindled as well. As Timothy Hacsi shows, most children in nineteenth-century orphan asylums were “half-orphans,” children with one living parent who was unable to provide for them. Yet orphanages continued to care for most dependent children until the depression strained asylum budgets and federally-funded home care became more widely available.
