One is raised by a grandmother, and another has two dads. One has many stepsiblings, and another has a new baby in the family. \n\nAs her classmates describe who they live with and who loves them — family of every shape, size and every kind of relation — the child realizes that as long as her family is full of caring people, it is special. \n\nA warm and whimsical look at many types of families, written by award-winning author Sara O’Leary, with quirky and sweet illustrations by Qin Leng. \n\nCorrelates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts:\nCCSS.
