Can a family have 50 people in it? Can you imagine having 18 mommies and daddies? What is a family? What does a family look like? Are all families exactly the same?
It's so important these days to have books to share with our young children to celebrate the differences in the families we belong to. What better way to help children understand the "okayness" and the normalcy of the differences than to show them the world of animal families with all the different ways they raise their children.
50 people in your family? Well...that's pretty normal if you are a meerkat. 18 mommies and daddies? Long-tailed tits think nothing of it!
A beautiful, entertaining and highly informative look at all the ways a family can be.
