There are large families and small ones, happy ones and sad ones, rich ones and poor ones, quiet ones and noisy ones, angry ones and good-tempered ones, anxious ones and cool ones.  Most of the time, they are bit of all.

“The Great Big Book of Families” showcases and explores different aspects of home life in a humorous and sensitive manner, leading the way for discussions between young and old about these sensitive topics.

Ros Asquith’s playful illustrations perfectly complement Mary Hoffman’s text, creating a book that children will pore over again and again.
