Marvelous Journey Home, The
by John M. Simmons
The remarkable story of parents and children coming together.
Based on actual events, it is the story of international adoption and parents seeking a child at an orphanage in a remote Russian village and bringing her home to her new family.
With scenes situated from orphanages in Russia, to Moscow, and finally on to America, the reader is taken on a journey around the world, home again, and eventually, even fare beyond.
Filled with hope and disappointment, love and loss, happiness and despair, The Marvelous Journey Home draws the reader along by their heartstrings to an unexpected destination.
Home is found in distant places, peace is found in unlikely circumstances, and family is always what matters most.
