This book outlines the various combinations which may constitute a modern-day family, from the traditional mum and dad with kids through to blended or extended families and everything in between ā including a single person with a beloved pet. The main message is that regardless of the composition of the family unit there is always love present, with the phrase Every Family is Different accentuated with a stylised heart replacing the diacritic dot above the āiā. This book is positive and upbeat and offers a simple, effective way of opening up discussion on what makes a family, especially with very young children.
