Book Review: The Pink Bonnet
By: Liz Tolsma
Another one finished! Based on the Tennessee Children's Society (yes, I read another one) this one is based from a mother's perspective of trying to find her kidnapped child after she's been adopted. Along the way we meet several people who helped her along the way and also struggled with their own involvement in Tann's operations.
The story line was good although it is based towards the beginning of Tann's operation yet her actions match more of that towards the end when things began to unravel around her. There are several points in the book that are hard to read because of the writing feeling a bit choppy but it doesn't take away from the book. Personally I don't feel.like the love story angle was needed for the book either but it added to the emotion of several events within the book. The book also touches on several related touchy topic to the scandal. Child abuse, human trafficking, conspiracy and forged documents.

Several things to think about from the book:
How was Tann able to get around the laws a rules?
Why did it take so long for Tann's operation to get unraveled?
Was millie intentionally messing up to get sent back?
How was it with so many parents begging for their children back Tann never was inquired upon?
Children were given to families based on their order and what they could pay donyou think this made Tann's shopping list ?
What would you do in Cecil's place? How far would you go?
Do things like this happen still today?
