All Kinds of Families by Mary Ann Hoberman, illustrated by Marc Boutavant, features creative and fascinating pictures, that draw readers in, and add insight to the many aspects of family. One can be comforted by the words–anything can be part of a family: “Bottle caps, ginger snaps, buttons, or rings. You can make families from all sorts of things!” Family can be a difficult thing to explain in certain situations. This book simply describes and illustrates the basic concept, so it is easy for children to understand. From fingers to toes, make believe families to families from long, long ago–children and adults alike will enjoy the rhythmic language and the idea that we all play a very special role.
