How Many Grown-ups Do You Have?

How many grown-ups does it take to make a family? Maybe your family is "unconventional", but I bet it is not that uncommon! This book is for children of unconventional/non-traditional families and for anyone who wants to introduce a child to the idea that families come in all shapes and sizes. Lovingly hand-illustrated, the book features a diversity of family configurations, including:queer families, multi-generational families, polyamorous families, single-parent families, co-parenting families, an adoptive family, a step-family, a foster family. Each spread of the book describes a child's family in simple language, while making it clear that no family is "unusual". The book also contains a brief simple-language "Family Vocabulary" as a conversation-starter about family diversity. "How Many Grown-ups Do You Have?" is suitable for even the youngest of readers (ages 0-6 years), as you can explore the pages in any order and even just a few at a time.
