Hope and Will Have a Baby: The Gift of Egg Donation
By Irene Celcer, Illustrated by Horacio
Gatto
 Irene Celcer, a mental health professional
presents Hope and Will Have a Baby to both parents and professionals
as an ideal tool for “little ears” and professionals alike. Part
of a series of books for children, Hope and Will Have a Baby
makes simple sense of the egg donor process in a touching, heartfelt
and thorough manner.
Because of the specifics of the book
Hope and Will Have a Baby, is also a simplified guide to adults
who wish to have a baby through the assistance of an egg donor.
The book provides a caring look at the development of the relationship
between Hope and Will making emphasizing the importance of an existing
tightly knit relationship before any attempt to have a baby is made.
The book deals lightly with the disappointment and anguish of not being
able to conceive, yet in a children’s book, this topic is still well
covered.
With the introduction of Dr. Quest, a
fertility specialist, Hope and Will Have a Baby
covers the steps taken to attempt to stimulate a pregnancy. Again, lightly
and politely covered, the parent is given the opportunity to open doors
to further discussion as the child matures.
Hope and Will Have a Baby celebrates
finding just the right egg donor, the pregnancy and the intimate preparation
for the coming of the new baby into their lives. The book allows
for a great deal of maturation with a young child and will assist in
parental education choices while the child is still developing.
This book is certainly suggested reading for any couple who have decided
to share the story of a child’s birth and the beauty of egg donation
at an early age.
