3.0
Informative, and interesting. I enjoyed what was here. On the other hand, I think it's possible that hte author was thinking too delicately of her youthful audience when writing, and spared us any details deemed too upsetting. On the one hand I see that, on the other hand this allows the reader to think that the parents and children described were all just individuals making choices, instead of seeing the broader picture of poverty, illness, societal norms, and so on that created this boom of children in need of homes.
