Federico and All His Families

By focusing on Federico and his activities, and presenting the families in a simple and matter-of-fact way, the book neatly avoids being preachy. The humorous and expressive illustrations carry as much weight as the text, for it is in the illustrations that readers see the racial composition of the different families, while also inviting readers to reach their own conclusions, for example: Are some single-parent families? Adopted families? The original Spanish text, Federico y sus familias, publishes simultaneously. Sweet and inclusive, perfect for any family. (Board book. 2-4).

Federico loves something about each family, and is loved in return. Bright colors and whimsical cartoon style art celebrate the rainbow of diversity. Such a joyful and appealing look at family for the youngest readers.

The full color cartoonish artwork conveys a lot of the diversity but the text comments on some of the families as well. Ideal for Bay Area families, this is a must-have.
