A little more about this book
Four-year-old Rumi has a Daddy, a Dada, a little brother and a dog. Through the families around her, children see two dads, two mums, a mum and dad, single-parent families and the idea that friends can be family too.
Helpful when
Looking for two-dad family representation, talking about the different ways families can look, or simply making sure the families on your child's bookshelf don't all look the same.
How to use at home
Just read it. Two dads don't need to become a lesson. Let Daddy and Dada simply be part of Rumi's family, and follow your child's lead if they notice or have questions.
