Bio: Who would have guessed that a newborn baby abandoned at birth, who failed to thrive with her adoptive parents, who suffered attachment, learning, and sensory disorders, and whose birth mother wanted to abort her, would end up thriving?

Best-selling author and speaker, Sherrie Eldridge, survived the odds and has become an i nternationally-recognized author and speaker in the field of adoption. For the last fifteen years, Eldridge has traveled the globe, speaking to anyone who will listen about adoption.
Twenty Thing Adopted Kids Wish Their Adoptive Parents Knew (1999), her best-selling book with more than 150,00 copies in print, has become required reading by many adoption agencies. It has been translated into four different languages. Questions Adoptees Are Asking(2009, NavPress) provides a Biblical resource for post-adoptive growth and has been translated by CBN-Kiev into Russian and distributed in Ukraine in 2009-2010. Forever Fingerprints: An Amazing Discovery for Adopted Children(EMK Press, 2007) was read in every state the year it was released to commemorate National Adoption Month. 20 Things Adoptive Parents Need to Succeed (2009 Random House Publishing Group, 2009), the newest companion book to the first 20 Things, gives much-needed encouragement to adoptive parents and helps them offer their best to their children in practical, life-impacting ways.

Eldridge facilitates two yahoo groups—one for nearly 100 adopted people from around the globe. (all-adoptee@yahoogroups.com.). The second group, QuestionsAdopteesAsk@yahoogroups.com is for adoptive and birth parents and grandparents.
