What Makes a Family?

'What Makes a Family?' explores different types of families, from what makes them unique to what they all have in common. Using everyday examples, clear explanations and colourful illustrations by Sarah Jennings, this book encourages children to celebrate families of all shapes and sizes. This diverse picture book covers lots of different family structures, including nuclear families, blended families, LGBTQ+ families, single-parent families, fostering and adoption. It's the perfect resource for starting important conversations with children about what different families can look like, and the love that holds them all together.
