The first of the Your Family series books, loved by two was created by Michelle as a book for their son - to show him that he was special, and loved, and that his family - with two mums - was just like other families.
It soon became apparent that this style of book was not easy to come by, and that there are many different family structures deserving recognition in the literary world!
Through Michelles desire to represent a variety of family structures, and special requests from people who have read some of the already existing books, the Your Family series was born!
The series is growing all the time - so be sure to keep checking the website for new and updated titles, and make sure you put in a request if you think theres another title to add to the list!
Each book consists of short poetic phrases, describing every-day activities in family life. They are aimed at pre-readers, through to self-readers, but certainly not limited to these children.
Used together, the Your Family series of books can be a great educational tool for showing children that there are many forms of accepted family structures in todays society.
