Age range 4 to 8No two families are the same, but every family is special. When Mrs. Mack says she will soon be a grandmother, her students realise that teachers have families just like they do! Suddenly everyone in the class wants to share information about his or her own unique family. Sarah tells of flying to China with her parents where they adopted her sister, Rachel. Christopher tells about his parents' divorce. They are still a family, but now he and his brother spend a few days every week at their dad' s apartment. Nick lives with his parents, five siblings, and his grandparents they need to order three large pizzas for dinner! And Hannah tells how she loves to garden with her two mummies.
Winner of a Parent' s Guide Children' s Media Award Flavin' s smiling, multicultural cast reinforces the message of this bluntly purposeful tale designed to spark family or class interchanges while validating a wide variety of family arrangements. --Kirkus Reviews The tone throughout is upbeat and positive. . . This is a good book for introducing nontraditional families to children. --School Library Journal
