This fun, inclusive board book celebrates the one thing that makes every family a family . . . and that’s LOVE. Love is baking a special cake. Love is lending a helping hand. Love is reading one more book. In this exuberant board book, many different families are shown in happy activity, from an early-morning wake-up to a kiss before bed. Whether a child has two moms, two dads, one parent, or one of each, this simple preschool read-aloud demonstrates that what’s most important in each family’s life is the love the family members share.
Choose a page to look at. Who is in this family? What do you notice about the people in this family? (Hair color, eye color, skin color..what they’re wearing, what they’re doing.) How is this family similar or different to yours? To other families you know? What do you think this family was doing before this moment? What do you think they’ll do after? Try choosing another page and answering the questions again!
