<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Many of the babies born at the Ideal Maternity Home in East Chester, Nova Scotia, were not adopted. Instead they mysteriously disappeared, becoming known as butterbox babies--named after the grocery delivery boxes that they were buried in.

In this expanded edition, she shares her ongoing examination, revealing the sometimes happy, often heartbreaking endings of survivors searching for their birth parents.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>""Butterbox Babies" is Bette Cahill's exhaustively researched expose [that] . . . reveals the horrifying tales of abuse, illegal adoptions and even murder." --"The Halifax Daily News"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Bette L.
