four-stars

This book is a celebration of family. It asks the reader, who will you become? Will you be like your daddy, your cousin, your grandma, and so on. Even if children are adopted, this book will resonate because it focuses on personality traits and not physical attributes. Will you be curious, bold, compassionate, grateful?

The illustrations are simple, colorful, high contrast, and compliment the story well. The family depicted is diverse racially as well as in familial make up giving the book a more inclusive feel. It mentions more family members than the traditional family unit. Recommended for children 3 and up.
