Families of Every Kind

Maybe your family has two moms, or two dads, or a grandad right at the heart of it, and you're after the storybooks where that's simply true and the day is about pancakes or a wedding or getting to bed. This shelf is fourteen of the warmest, where nobody argues and nobody explains. A cat wrecks the chore list, two worms plan a wedding, a girl brings her whole family to the Mother's Day party. Pick whichever fits your child's age and the mood tonight.

What holds this shelf together is how ordinary every family in it gets to be. The wedding, the bath, the bedtime story, the messy kitchen, all of it just happens, and the two moms or two dads or the grandad are simply the people who love the child in the story. Nobody's making a point. They're making pancakes.
