My Big Fantastic Family
This funny and reassuring celebration of non-nuclear families will help children to understand that they will always be loved--even if parents separate or divorce. When Dad says that he's moving out, Lily-May feels all upside-down inside. But now Dad comes on Sundays, and they ride their bikes really fast and make secret dens together. Lily-May plays more just with Mom now, too--and when Mom's new partner Peter comes over, they play pirate ships! Sometimes, there are tricky moments--Lily-May hates it when Mum has to work late--but a birthday party with Lily-May's big fantastic family helps her realize just how many people love her. Beautifully written in rhyme by the award-winning authors of the bestselling George's Amazing Adventures series, this uplifting story with a diverse cast of characters embraces all the positive aspects of becoming part of a blended family after a divorce or separation.
