Stella Brings the Family (Hardcover)
This goes beyond simply showing a two-dad family. It tackles a very real moment when an ordinary school activity assumes every child’s family looks the same. Stella gets to solve that problem without her family being treated as the problem.

A little more about this book
Stella’s class is planning a Mother’s Day celebration. The problem is that Stella has Daddy and Papa, but no mum to invite. Her classmates’ questions reveal that Stella has plenty of people who care for her, so when party day arrives she comes up with a solution: bring the family.
Helpful when
Talking about two-dad families, different family structures, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day activities, belonging at school, or moments when an activity unintentionally leaves some families out.
How to use at home
Use Stella’s dilemma to ask a bigger question: if you had a celebration for the people who look after you, who would you invite? It shifts the conversation from what a family is supposed to look like to who actually shows up for us.
Recommended age
Preschool (4-6 years) en Early primary (6-8 years)
How we found it
Two-dad representation plus a genuinely useful story about navigating the very mum-and-dad assumptions children still encounter. An easy yes for The Bookshop.
