Product Description from Amazon: Tell me again about the night I was born.Tell me again how you would adopt me and be my parents. Tell me again about the first time you held me in your arms.

Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell, author and illustrator of the best-selling When I Was Little: A Four Year Old’s Memoir of Her Youth, have joined together again to create a fresh new picture book for every parent and every child. In asking her parents to tell her again about the night of her birth, a young girl shows that it is a cherished tale she knows by heart.

Tell Me Again About the Night I Was Born is a unique, exuberant story about adoption and about the importance of a loving family.

A young girl asks her parents to tell her again the cherished family story of her birth and adoption.

Mary’s Review: Where to begin?

“Tell Me Again” is a beautiful story with the cutest illustrations of a little girl asking her mother to tell her every detail of the night she was born knowing she is special because she is adopted.   It brought  back so many memories of the nights my own children were born and the stories I used to tell them and it made me stop and wonder if the grandson that was put up for adoption 11 years ago asks to be told of the night he was born.

I recommend this book for ages 4-8 years of age.
