Digging to America by Ann Tyler

I listened to this book. I've never read anything by Tyler before but she is a popular contemporary fiction author. The story was about two families who adopted little girls from Korea. They meet at the airport when the girls are arriving from Korea. This starts their relationship with each other and over the years the two families grow to be very good friends. One family, the Yazdans are Iranian-American and the other is your typical caucasion family of European descent. You learn about some of the traditional customs in Iran, but mostly the book is about how the characters relate to each other. It was short and entertaining.
