Made With Love — Whitney Williams

Explaining embryo donation and adoption to young children can be hard. But 'Made With Love' makes it easy by using an allegory every child can understand: baking cookies! A visual feast with the sweetest-ever rhyming storyline, donating and adopting families alike will eat up this heartwarming tale.

Made With Love will help you relate the following truths to your child:

• Sometimes couples that have pursued IVF end up with more embryos than they can birth and raise
• When those couples choose to give their remaining frozen embryos a chance at life with another family, they do so out of love
• Children adopted as embryos are longed for, loved, and welcomed by their forever family before they are even placed in their mother's womb
• ‘Shared ingredients' do not ultimately make a family, love does

Extra goodies: A snickerdoodle recipe for hands-on family fun (including instructions for freezing/thawing!), thought-provoking family discussion questions to help you take 'Made With Love' from allegory to reality, and a designated section for you to share your family's personal embryo donation/adoption story.
