There are families of all kinds featured in this large format picture book aimed at babies and toddlers although it is more weighted to WASPs and my hackles were raised by some of the descriptions and illustrations which border on stereotyping. However, there is much that is very good in this catalogue of different aspects of family life from getting on which siblings to family holidays.
