A child’s imagined family, across an ocean

Set between a Bulgarian orphanage and a family dreaming across the ocean, the story centers on Sophia’s hope for a home and the possibility of belonging. The publisher describes it as inspired by author Hayley Markoff Hinkle’s adoption story, identified in the source as the first adoption of a child from Bulgaria by an American couple in 1990. Its subject is adoption as a journey toward family and connection, with love bridging distance at the heart of the narrative.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children sharing picture books about family and belonging
  • Families touched by adoption who want a story centered on an adoption journey

Book overview

Far away in a quiet orphanage in Bulgaria, a little girl named Sophia dreams of something she has never known: a family to call her own. Each day, she imagines what it would feel like to be held close, tucked in at night, and loved by a mommy and daddy who would choose her forever. Though the days can feel long and lonely, Sophia holds tightly to hope, believing deep in her heart that love is waiting for her somewhere in the world. Across the ocean, a family is dreaming of her too. Inspired by the true story of author Hayley Markoff Hinkle, the first child adopted from Bulgaria by an American couple in 1990, From Bulgaria with Love is a tender and beautifully told story of hope, belonging, and the extraordinary power of love to cross every distance. Perfect for children and families touched by adoption, this heartfelt book celebrates the truth that family is not only where we come from, but where love finds us. A touching story of courage, connection, and the journey home.
