RESCUING JULIA TWICE: A Mother's Tale of Russian Adoption and Overcoming Reactive Attachment Disorder.
From Publisher’s Weekly:  “Journalist Traster knew that "something wasn't right" when she and her husband adopted a six-month-old baby from a Siberian orphanage in 2003. The author eventually discovered that her daughter suffered from Reactive Attachment Disorder, an affliction that affects a portion of children who are abused, neglected, or orphaned. In this moving memoir, Traster exposes the "dark underbelly" of the Russian adoption system and provides parents facing this disorder with valuable insight and information, as well as sharing her experience of learning what it truly means to be a mother.”
