Description
Summary:	With blunt and sometimes hilarious candor, children from over 50 diverse families open the door to their homes, and explain things like "divorce," "mixed race," "gay and lesbian," "birth mom," "single parent," "guardian," and "stepdad" -- and get right to the point of what they wish other people would understand about their families. While designed especially for young audiences, That¿s A Family! stretches the minds and touches the hearts of people of all ages. From the makers of IT'S ELEMENTARY, this fresh look at the changing American family breaks new ground, and once again lets children lead the way in preventing prejudice and embracing diversity.
