Erin and Roderick did some thinking for a while before Roderick came up with the perfect answer.</em></p><p><em>Fliss Goldsmith's Erin & Roderick Discover Families celebrates the differences in modern families and highlights what they all have in common, and it does so in a well-organized and fun story about a picnic in the park on a lovely afternoon. I loved seeing how Mom and Dad fielded their kids' questions and especially appreciated the non-judgmental way that the story dealt with families having two moms or dads. In the end, the story shows how families are all pretty much alike in the ways that really matter... Erin & Roderick Discover Families is most highly recommended."</em></p><p>-Readers' Favorite; 5 star review</p><p><br></p><p><em>"...The simplistic and gentle approach to Roderick's questions are perfect for helping younger children to understand why not all families look the same. We believe that this book is a great tool for opening up the discussion of family diversity and showing every child that their family is beautiful and valid. This book belongs in every classroom and on every bookshelf, so that ALL children can learn about and celebrate every type of family.</em></p><p><em>We believe this book would make a great gift for any child with a non-traditional family or for a child who may have friends or family members with non-traditional families..."</em></p><p><em>-</em>Same-SexParents.com</p><br>
