What is a family? And what defines a family?
Whether it’s a single parent with a child, LGBTQI+ families, mom-dad-child, blended families, adoption, group homes, or any other arrangement—no two families are alike.
This educational book, featuring read-aloud passages and info boxes for parents and caregivers, meets families where they are in their everyday lives and challenges traditional role models, expectations, and standards. It highlights many new, real-life family configurations that young readers and those reading aloud to them may not yet be familiar with—and, above all, encourages them to get to know every family anew.
A thoughtful exploration of the topic of family, with informational texts for parents and caregivers.
Colorful illustrations with a powerful message by Emily Claire Völker that delight children and adults alike
Numerous tips for every family—explained in a child-friendly way with examples from the real lives of today’s families by Britta Kiwit (@avalino.diversity), an influencer and activist for family- and society-critical issues
