Unwrapping the story
What is a family you may ask? Defining family can be a tough thing as the word “family” alone is a powerful word that conjures up multiple different meanings and emotions. ... Some might say a family can be anything that involves love.
New from the creator of "Wallpaper and Skunk on a String" this delightful book redefines the typical family. Dad and his beloved cat share special bonds. Their grand orange coifs of hair are quite similar, they both love lapping up milk, they enjoy yoga stretches, napping together, and entertaining musical interludes woven throughout their day. Mom, on the other hand, has a completely different relationship with a certain avian who has similar funky hair, piercing crystal blue eyes and that loves to bust a move with her.
A surprising twist at the end of the story will spark giggles as it exposes just who is narrating this fun, witty tale. The stunning paper - collage illustrations bring warmth and life to the meaning of the minimal text and highlight a beautiful cameo of a modern day family for you to enjoy. Highly recommended.
