Review: A sweet story based on fact, which teaches tolerance and diversity but is also just a nice story! Amazon delivery was swift and the paperback book was well wrapped to avoid damage.

Review: I really like this. I believe it could be written in a way that would have been more engaging, however; it is a little long-winded for its target audience and I've had children under five get bored before the end when I've read it (I am a former children's librarian). But the story is adorable and it has become a classic of early years literature, standing out for being a true story and having a very accessible LGBT theme, which is introduced in a very natural way. I have had a couple of conversations with children about gay parents when reading this book when they have had trouble understanding the concept, but often it is just accepted by children that the penguins are both male. It is fairly popular with children (though more so with liberal adults) and the illustrations are beautiful. I believe the company Educate and Celebrate have a lesson plan based on this book, so if you are a teacher reading this review, search for that online.
