Une enseignante demande aux eleves de sa classe de reflechir a ce qui rend leur famille speciale. L'un d'entre eux croit que sa famille est trop differente des autres pour pouvoir l'expliquer.
En ecoutant ses camarades decrire des familles de tous les types et de toutes les tailles, il realise que sa famille, bien qu'atypique, n'en est pas moins une famille.
Tant l'adoption que les familles reconstituees, l'homoparentalite, le divorce et les familles traditionnelles sont abordes dans cet album ecrit par l'auteure Sara O'Leary, laureate de plusieurs prix. Un regard chaleureux et captivant sur differents types de familles, souligne tout en douceur par les illustrations exquises de Qin Leng.
When a teacher asks the children in her class to think about what makes their families special, the answers are all different in many ways -- but the same in the one way that matters most of all.
One child is worried that her family is just too different to explain, but listens as her classmates talk about what makes their families special. As they describe who they live with and who loves them -- family of every shape, size and every kind of relation -- the child realizes that as long as her family is full of caring people, it is special.
A warm and whimsical look at many types of families, written by award-winning author Sara O'Leary, with quirky and sweet illustrations by Qin Leng.
