About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler begins to notice the world around them and asks why a friend has two mommies, lives with a grandma, or looks different from their own family. It is a gentle, affirming tool for introducing the concept that families are defined by love rather than a specific structure. Through simple, bouncy rhymes and bright illustrations, the book celebrates variety including single parents, LGBTQ families, adoption, and multigenerational homes. It is a perfect choice for parents who want to instill a sense of belonging and open-mindedness from the very first years. You can use it to build a child's self-confidence in their own unique home while fostering empathy for others.
