About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts noticing differences in how other families live, eat, or pray, or when you want to nurture a global perspective from the comfort of your home. It serves as a gentle introduction to the idea that while every home looks different, the love and care within them are universal. Through the stories of fourteen real children, this book explores diverse family structures, religious traditions, and cultural customs using beautiful mixed-media illustrations. It is perfectly suited for children ages 4 to 8, providing a mirror for their own lives and a window into the lives of others. Parents will appreciate how it fosters curiosity without being overly didactic, making it an excellent tool for raising empathetic, world-minded citizens.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The approach is direct and secular, though it mentions various religious practices as facts of daily life. It touches on different family structures (multigenerational, single parent) in a matter-of-fact, celebratory way. There is no conflict or trauma; the resolution is inherently hopeful as it emphasizes global connection.
