Families, Families, Families!

Families are diverse, and although they may look different from your own, each is unique and just as important. With engaging pictures of different animals depicted in various combinations to represent the variety among families, young readers will be entertained and engaged as they discover that families come in all shapes, sizes, and genders, and that “If you love each other, then you are a family.” This colourful picture book is suitable for the primary classroom and lends itself well to teacher-led units on families, diversity, or personal awareness and identity, as well as to discussions about the importance of acceptance, regardless of sexual identity, family structure, culture, or racial background.
