Synopsis

A beautiful, moving celebration of what it truly means

to be family, from the brilliant new picture book duo Patrice Lawrence

and Diane Ewen.

'A lively, heartfelt picture book celebrating mixed

heritage' Guardian 'Best New Picture Books'

'A must have for all book shelves and libraries'

Dapo Adeola

Every family is different. Every family is special.

Josie loves her family. Her mum, dad, brothers and sister

- they're all the best and they all look different.

But people always seem to ask Josie "Is that YOUR mama?", and

soon she starts to wonder if her family are actually supposed to

look the same.

When Josie shares her worries with her family, they find a way

to help her see what truly matters.

Heartfelt and empowering words by Patrice Lawrence, multi-award-winning

author of Orangeboy

Bright, gorgeous artwork from Diane Ewen, winner of the Jericho

Prize and The Queen's Knickers Awards, 2021
