My Wild Family

Sometimes there’s more to family than meets the eye: an older brother is strong and well-respected (just don’t upset him). The accompanying illustration: an elephant on a playground among scampering and see-sawing kids. A mother is shy and beautiful, preferring not to standout. But there she is: towering over a bustling street scene as a stately giraffe. The grandmother keeps odd hours (an owl), the cousins are expert climbers (monkeys), and the uncle has a boundless appetite (bear), with the narrative culminating in a question to readers: What makes YOU special? With detail-rich art, international flair, and bold colors galloping across oversize pages, kids will delight in a new, wildly inventive way of seeing others, as well as themselves.
