This is a great introduction to parents and their young in the world. There are several animals shown in wonderful illustrations with a name label and a brief fact about the family relationships. It might tell about feeding, length of time they remain with their parents, who takes care of the young etc. There is even one showing a monkey adopted by a dog. The last page shows humans with their families showcasing diversity. There is a glossary at the back as throughout the book, the names of parents are written in the language of the country where the animals live. There are resources and a map showing and telling where in the world the various animals live. This is a great book for young children. It can be used just to learn about animals, when studying families or just to read a nice story in a rhyming way. A great book for schools and classrooms. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via netgalley. ( )
