Families by Anita Ganeri
5.0

I love this handy little book.
This book is going to be a must have for any classroom I work in. It’s a wonderful, simple, and colourful book that represents every type of family.

I expected to have some issues with the book, as there is always something missed out of a book like this. I usually feel excited to share it with others, but also worried to have not covered every possible base. I only had one minor point of this book (which is much less than usual) and that was the explicit use of gendered language (ie. “brother or sister” instead of a neutral “sibling”) which is much much less than I can usually pick at, so I’m considering that a win for now!
