Sometimes I live with Mommy;
Sometimes I stay with Dad.
But we are
all a family
Whatever house I’m at.

No two families look exactly alike, but every family is tied together by love. With soft, charming illustrations, each child in My House, My Family introduces their own family situation—from adoptive and foster parents to single parents, from urban apartments to rural farms, and from one-child families to large ones. Regardless of the type of family or the size of the house, and regardless of the child’s abilities or past experiences, every child feels at home when they feel loved and safe.

Sometimes I say, “I love you,”
They say, “I love you too!”
We like to be together
And do what families do.
