Reviews
"Vivid, imaginative storytelling...a relatable tale for children of adopted, blended, and LGBTQ+ families.... Accompanied by Parsons' bright, energetic illustrations, Peter's rhyming text reminds young readers that all types of family structures are valid and that different kinds of families are capable of kindness, education, protection, and, most important, fun." --Booklist
