I am going to mostly review this book as I reviewed "A Tale of Two Mommies" by Vanita Oelschlager, as she wrote the same book twice.

I wish I could have loved this book, as it is so important to have more and more books featuring queer families. Instead, I was deeply disappointed by this book.

This book is all about the heteronormative way of thinking of what a 'women' does and what a 'man' does, and applies it to a same-sex family. Straight people need to feel reassured by putting things into a box, with questions like: "which dad teaches you how to bike, which dad watches movies with you, which dad puts a bandage on you when you're hurt..."

This is not how kids behave!! Kids simply don't care about those questions! They may ask one of those questions, but not continuously for 24 pages! They would have changed topic a long time ago and would have simply played at the beach, like kids play at the beach and parents watch over them.

It feels like the perpetuation of "who is the masculine one in a lesbian couple", "who does what", and it is hurting, and utterly wrong.

Similar to A Tale of Two Mommies, this book deals with a young daughter answering questions from a peer about the role of her daddies in her life. It conveys a clear message…love is love. The illustrations are cute and so is this book.

This books is so cute . This is a perfectly adorable relationship of two dads and their girl. Though the questions are asked from the perspective of a boy who has straight parents(probably) , questions like who braids hair and who bathes her are awesome.
I just love there is absolutely no cliché. The dads are also painted in a clear perspective.
This book is recommended for everyone.

This picture book depicts two friends having a conversation. Which Dad takes care of each of the things that a little girl needs? With simple rhyming language the reader learns that both fathers love and care for their daughter. The book provides a nice introduction for learning about how different families nurture their children in similar ways. A good addition for a school library!

A Tale of Two Daddies follows a girl with two fathers and uses a rhyming question/answer format to share what the dads do with/for their daughter. This is a great book for sharing diverse family structures with children and helping them to relate to their peers.

Like a Tale of Two Mommies, A Tale of Two Daddies has fun illustrations and much needed LGBTQAI illustrations. The pattern of question and answer is a fun idea and I can definitely see kids doing this but for me, the text fell flat because there was too much focus on the rhyme scheme.

A cute and wonderful story!😊 I think this book is perfect for any diverse family. My children loved it just like they loved A Tale of Two Mommies!💙💜

Thank you NetGalley and VanitaBooks for allowing me to check this out.
A Tale of Two Daddies is a playground conversation between two children. The boy says he heard that the girl has two dads. The girl says that is right. She has Daddy and Poppa.

I thought this was really cute.
So many books about blended families start with "Why do you have two dads?" which I have always found is a ridiculous question.
I enjoyed that this one did not. It was a story of how and what each of her parents do in her life with the natural inquisitiveness all children have. A rather sweet way to discuss blended families with the tiny humans in your life and lots of colour and fun pictures to keep them interested.

Thank you to Vanita Oelschlager, VanitaBooks, LLC, and NetGalley for the advanced reviewer copy of “A Tale of Two Daddies” in return for an honest review.

On the heels of recently reviewing “Phoenix Goes To School,” the children book about a transgender child going to elementary and being in school for the first time, I absolutely wanted to do “A Tale of Two Daddies” and “A Tale of Two Mommies.”

I am very pleased at the turnout of all three of these books and about the idea of addressing all these questions children have about these subjects, about their friends, and their friends parents. I will be giving out copies of all three of these to my nieces and nephews in the future.

An adorable and important picture book that helps to normalise having two dads. The beautiful illustration and rhymes are wonderful and innocent and certainly helpful to young children.

I love this book! As a speech language pathologist who works with young children, I am always looking for books to use to help children with rhyming. Not only does this book have that, it also has the positive theme of diversity. The little girl in the story has two daddies, and another child asks, 'Which daddy.....?" to her about different scenarios. What a lovely book! I will certainly add this to my professional library. The illustrations are cartoonish and would appeal to young children. Great book! Good present for the LGBTQ families in your life!

Thank you to #NetGalley and the publisher for a pre-publication ebook in exchange for an honest review.

Such a lovely book. A little boy asks his friend with two dads, which dad takes care of what things around the house and in life. I like this book because one kid respectfully asks questions about something he does not understand. I also like how the authors made sure that everything was not just daddy or poppa, but that some things they do together, and some things our girl is big enough to do on her own. A great book for any library or home, to help kids learn to discuss life different from how they know it to be.

This is a very sweet children's book about a little girl with two daddies. The book is written as dialogue between the girl and a new friend on a playground and is interspersed with pictures of the girl's daddies. It is written at a level suitable to preschool or toddler age children, so it would be an excellent introduction to families that may be new and unfamiliar to some children. I also think it could be nice for a child with two dads or two moms as they could answer along with the main character - "Which dad helps you with your hair?" or "Who helps you match your socks?" The art work is very cute and fun, always a plus with picture books! I would definitely recommend this book to parents who want to open their children's minds at an early age or help a family member or friend to feel more welcome!

These are such heartwarming books. I love them. Such a nice and adorable way of teaching kids how normal it is for someone to have same-sex parents. So important and significant.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing the book!

It was very cute but I didn’t see any real narrative to this or important underlying message outside the characters telling each other what each dad does. I’m happy it wasn’t stereotyped because it was something that easily could have been. Also, I liked that sometimes the little girl’s responses weren’t what we’d expect. I really just wish this story had more of a narrative than it being so linear.

This gem is a matter-of-fact, refreshing approach to LGBT discussions with children. The young characters are vital to the story and converse plainly and age appropriately about the subject matter. In our current society it is wonderful to see youth literature that responds in a matter-of-fact way to things topics that were formally taboo, especially with the absence of an adult narration or presence. The illustrations, too, added to my enjoyment of the story. Overall this was a charming, special story that I hope will become a classic and will be used in teaching young-- and adult-- minds.

What a beautiful little book! Adorable illustrations and a lovely reflection on the important roles each parent plays in the life of their child regardless of gender. The text is simple and the message is clear. Well done.

I’m so happy that there are books like these now. I love how there’s a progress to showing the variety of different kind of families that there are and this initiative to teach kids while they’re young. Incredibly well done.

I loved this book. Only bad thing was that it wa too short. It was quite interesting book where kid/kids seems lived life where was two daddies. Also in this book was quite beautiful arts and pictures. Short texts and interesting views for LGBT family and what kind of life might be if you have two daddies. Loved it.

A beautiful picture book about the everyday life of having two Dads. I truly feel like this book should be read in classrooms, or at library functions, as it has such an important message to send out there to children. Whether your parents are a mommy and a daddy, two mommies, or two daddies, the important thing is that they love you and help you with your day to day needs.

A Tale Of Two Daddies starts out with a young boy and a young girl playing together at the park. He is curious about the fact that she has two dads, and no moms. He asks her all sorts of questions of which dad helps her with various things such as cooking a birthday cake, braiding her hair, and coaching her team. She explains that her Daddy helps with some things, her Poppa helps with other things, and certain things get done by both of them.

I loved this book from cover to cover and will definitely be putting it on my gift list for all my friends children. I am happy to find that there is also another book in the series called A Tale Of Two Mommies.

I received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange of an honest review.
