This adoptee graphic memoir, Connecting Threads: Five Siblings Lost and Found, is a powerful story of identity, belonging, and the resilience of the human spirit. All were separated by foster care and closed adoptions. One sibling’s life and search for first family, belonging, and culture, one thread at a time.
These siblings of Indigenous and European heritage floundered trying to find identity when their own was hidden by closed adoption and a system that kept them unaware that other siblings existed. It took perseverance to find each other over decades.
