“A celebration of families of every shape and size. A joyfully inclusive picture book that gets children talking about their homes, whether they be bustling and loud, small and loving, somewhere they were born into or somewhere that found them. Irresistible rhyming text celebrates everyone and every background.” - The Bookseller
“In this glorious book, illustrated by Yasmeen Ismail, Robert Tregoning explores the diverse forms families take and celebrates what makes them work - love!” - The Sunday Post
“This beautiful picturebook, posing the question ‘What is a family?’, is an absolute joy from start to end. The important message is that your family is there with a hug when you fall and that it doesn’t need to be perfect all the time. The illustrations are charming and clever, with each page packed full of diverse and inclusive characters, gently bringing readers on a journey and inviting us to explore the feelings of belonging and acceptance, while showing us how families can be created in many different, equally relevant and meaningful ways.” - Children’s Books Ireland
“The rhyming and often witty wordplay perfectly complements the images, which feel fresh and fun. Difference is proudly paraded and celebrated – we see families that can be loud or quiet, big or small, places we were born into or people we found. Every reader will find a piece of themselves in this delightful book, full of talking points. You can chart the different characters through the pages and follow their adventures and expressions. A book to explore and cherish.” - Inis Magazine
