'Adopted in Love is a heartwarming story of love, acceptance and sharing of life and culture told in both English and the Yolŋu language of Warramiri.

'In 2017, schoolteacher Rachel and her husband Cameron moved to the remote homeland of Gäwa, on Elcho Island in the Northern Territory. Upon their arrival, they were adopted into the local Yolŋu family.

'In this beautifully illustrated book, Rachel reflects on her adoption into the Yolŋu family and how it mirrors our own adoption into God’s family through his Son Jesus.' (Publication summary)
