A Caregiver's Guide to Lewy Body Dementia by Helen Buell Whitworth

I was overall, very disappointed with this book, after reading the glowing reviews. It left me with many questions that I had to look elsewhere to answer. I was surprised, because this is a lengthy book. However, it seems to be padded with personal stories. The resources section is also lacking with recommendations for further reading (which would have been helpful, considering the amount of questions I had). It just wasn't worth the money.

Reading this book opened my eyes to the possibilities of adopting a foreign child, which is something that I have always thought to be so expensive and exclusive for wealthy couples. The book gives a detailed, step-by-step process on how to go about international adoption with the least expense to the adoptive couple. The details shared by the authors are so specific that readers need not research on specific people who can help or search websites to find applicable laws or even search for the country with the most hassle-free adoption laws. Almost every question that I had before about international adoption has been answered by this book! What a good buy!

I also like the fact that the author doesn't give a one-track method on how to live off the grid; instead, he gave at least two choices on how you would like to go about it. For example, he gave three different ways on how to build a house .
