Familias -- Shelley Rotner, Paperback

Big or small, similar or different-looking, there are all kinds of families. This simple introduction to families of all kinds is now available in Spanish.

Celebrate diversity with this Spanish-language picture book for very young children about the many faces of contemporary families. Bright photographs by National Geographic photographer Shelley Rotner capture families having fun together, enjoying all the ways they are similar and different.

Some families have one parent, and some have two; some have aunts and uncles and grandparents living with them. Some have adopted children, some have children born to them. Whether they live all together or far apart, families love and care for each other.

Designed to showcase the wide variety of modern families and spur discussions about young readers' own family history, this beautiful picture book with simple Spanish vocabulary is a must-have for children beginning to learn about the world and the people around them.
