I think this book is about family love. Main character is Fanella. She had a boyfriend, but they were over becouse Fanella's body can't have children. Fanella's best friend Teresa has a child, whose name is Timothy, and nice hasband, so Fanella envied her. She really wants a child, so she decided to adopt a child. That was Ellie, a five-year-old girl. Ellie and Timothy went to same school. There teacher's name was Rod. He had a wife but they divorced. Then Fanella and Rod began to fall in love.....
Adopting a child is little unusual in Japan, but maybe it isn't unusual in other country. I think it is ok that there are many different kinds of family. Maybe there are someone who really wants children but they can't, or maybe there are someone who can have children but dosen't want children. I think adopting a child is good for the former. From this book, I could think about family, and form of the family.
