From Down syndrome advocate and viral sensation Sofia Sanchez comes this beautiful and inclusive picture book about all the different ways to make a family. Beginning with Sofia’s adopted family, readers will meet families with two moms and two dads, families with single parents, and kids raised by grandparents, guardians, or older siblings. Big families, small families, extended families, blended families, and mixed race families — including parents with their own differences that make them unique, too.
This heartwarming companion book to You Are Enough highlights the important message that families aren’t just the people you live with: they include the people in your school, your community, and the people you choose who love you and empower you just the way you are.
"This extended ode to families is heartwarming and inclusive, depicting racially diverse and interracial families as well as characters who vary in terms of ability and religion. Several characters reappear throughout the cheery illustrations; so many families are shown that they all often mingle in various scenes.... Overflowing with fond appreciation." — Kirkus Reviews
