Photo books for the kids in the Nest

I heard that a Swedish lady has adopted a girl from the nest. She's a friend of a friend living in Nairobi and I made a photo book for her and her daughter. They are staying in Nairobi, at least for a few years so I can follow her development. That's great and I hope the girl will appreciate some photos of her early childhood! So, one down two to go.
I know that it is important for the adopted kids to have some kind of sense of where they came from. Maybe not during the first years of life, but later when they go into their teens and grow up. I think that having images of where you spent your first time in life is going to be important, at some point in their life. So, I hope I can help through this books. I want to communicate that although without parents, they were loved and well taken care of, in a nice place and that their parents finally found them in this nice place. I hope having this book will help them in their future!

The book ended up being 24 pages and below you find a few examples of how it will look. I'm going to have it printed in Sweden and bring it back when school starts in August.



 

I also added some images from Nairobi on the last page of the book.
