Book summary
A host of silly animals in dozens of combinations demonstrate all kinds
of nontraditional families! Cleverly depicted as framed portraits, these
goofy creatures offer a warm celebration of family love.
Nayu's thoughts
Older
readers know how this thing called normality doesn't exist, since
every family has various issues and unique scenarios. I love how this
book celebrates the differences in families, with emphasis on the
adults at the head of the family since not everyone has a mother and
father looking after them. Sometimes it is grandparents. Other times
it is step-parents, or two mothers. Yet whoever you live with and
wherever you live, every single family is united by love (even if it
isn't always clearly demonstrated). This is a perfect way of
explaining what life is like in reality – often different,
sometimes challenging, but filled with love and kindness.
