Stella Brings the Family

Schiffer, M. B.
When Stella’s class plans a Mother’s Day party Stella is concerned as she doesn’t have a mom; rather, she has two dads. She has lots and lots of people who care for her just not a mom, so when a friend suggests Stella bring all her special people she does! The party is a success and she promises her exhausted teacher that she won’t bring so many people for Father’s Day. This gentle introduction to same-sex families for K-3 conveys the message that children are loved and accepted no matter the size, shape, or composition of their families. Simple language is accompanied by soft, expressive watercolour illustrations. A useful resource to prompt discussion, for a library collection, or counselor’s use.
