This picture book is controversial for many people. The nature of the topic--homosexual relationships--is a tough one to address, but this book is just too cute and innocent for me to worry much about. (Described in a review by one parent as "shocking adult material." I lean more towards, "it's about penguins!") The pictures are all adorable and in muted tones, very attractive for children. A great mix of facts and stories, all based on the true story of a penguin family at the Central Park Zoo. I believe, that given the chance, children will love the warming story of this not-so-traditional family.
