"Some families are big. Some families are small. Some families are the same color. Some families are different colors. All families like to HUG each other!" The message - there are many different ways to be a family, each one loving and special - is straightforward and unequivocal, but bright, zany illustrations and exuberant text keep it lighthearted and enjoyable.
