Our little girl loved this book. It's fun and has a great message. Little Keesha is so playful and her two moms are true role models. It really does show how normal our families are and does not harp on the "two moms" part. They are simply a normal family doing normal things and Keesha shows how to be nice to others and share :)

Yay!
This book was sooooo good! It is the perfect combination of LGBT inclusion without being too "gay gay gay gay". It also does a great job at showing how sharing can be fun and I liked how the moms rewarded Keesha for being nice and sharing her toys. I want to see more books like this one!

I'm so happy to see a book with two moms AND they're African American! This book is really cute and has a fun tone and teaches children the fun in sharing too. 5 stars!!

Finally!
Finally a book that features lesbian moms without the focus being on the lesbian moms! The authors did a great job of bringing it all together and as a parent, I love the message of sharing, of course (my little one needed to read this one! lol). All in all, a wonderful book! Looking forward to more.

Wow!!
All I can say is wow! This book is full of so many great messages for my kids and all while displaying a same-sex family. I often fear that my kids are constantly reminded of how "different" our family is and this is a perfect way to let them feel "normal". My husband and I always try to make them feel this way and this certainly helps! I'll try to keep this as short as possible, but I can't say enough how good this is! I particularly like the sharing and being nice to others theme, but also noticed the few other really positive messages slipped in there too! Well done!

Great Book!
I just received my order of this book and my daughter loves it! My partner and I read it to her at bedtime last night and it was wonderful to see her light up when she saw that Keesha had 2 moms. She wanted to read it again today! We can't wait to see the other stories. We're just glad that someone else cares enough to have products like these for families like ours :)
