And Tango Makes Three by Justin Richardson and Peter Parnell
I completely believe in using books to help you talk to your kids about things that maybe you aren’t sure how to discuss. This is the PERFECT book for explaining to your children that families come in all different forms and that, in fact, some families have two dads. I also love this book because it focuses on how the two penguins spent so much time together and how much they clearly loved each other. I also love this book because it’s a true story of two penguins who ended up with a penguin baby to care for and how the workers at the zoo made it happen. I would read this book to your children before they come to you with questions. When they do come to you with questions then you can talk about this book. They then already have a frame of reference with which to understand what they’ve just asked you. It makes the discussion much easier that way.
