This book was clearly written for children and it was written well. It is simple and clear. The take away here is that two children have a normal conversation between themselves that illustrates a child's needs and wants being met by two moms.

This book is a kid-oriented blended family read where the child is questioned about his family. Illustrated colorfully by Mike Blanc.

This little book is a superbly illustrated one for kids, with lots of learning opportunities and lots of questions to answer. To me it seems it is about a two moms couple taking care of a little boy who clearly knows his moms’ duties, is aware of his expectations and knows he is loved and taken care of. It speaks tons about gender differences at a subtle level, through the pov of the little one who undestands his world pretty well. I warmly recommend it and considering purchasing it for my kids for when they grow up a bit more. Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this arc.

Incredibly cute and well written. This book helps "normalize" same-gender parented families by showing that's it's really no different that a family with a mother and a father.

The illustrator brought this book to life! So well done are the illustrations that they seem to jump from the pages. With such a great message, I would love to handsell this book.

A Tale of Two Mommies by Vanita Oelschlager is short and sweet. I love the fact that it's a children's book teaching kids that it's okay to have two moms instead of just one. I love that it's normalizing gay parents rather than demonizing them for children to read. I love how it depicts that both moms will always be there for their son whenever he truly needs them. It teaches children that same-sex relationships and/or parenting can be and is normal for some people.

A sweet, age-appropriate story about a non-traditional family. I loved the illustrations in this one.

5 stars.
This was so enjoyable! It was adorable and so heart felt. Plus I just love the cover! There needs to be more books like this one. I really really like seeing books about GLBT. This one was perfect for helping kids understand what having two mothers is like. Its told in a poetic way which makes it a nice read. Its just a beautiful book. But not only is it about having two mothers, but also a mixed race family which is so common now. I would definitely recommend this, i just loved it!

A cute little book that can help explain families that are different than what children are used to..but are still great!

<p>"A Tale of Two Mommies" is an absolute delight to read! Filled with splendidly vibrant illustrations, this picture book is ideal for young learners and those who appeal to a more visually focused piece of literature. Told in the eyes of three children, the story focuses on an LGBTQ+ family and how they are no different than that of a heterosexual parent relationship. Through a series of questions and answers, the two children learn that the boy's family of two moms is no different than their own. The reading level and the content of the material is appropriate for both parents and educators to use for young school aged children, both for pleasure and as a learning tool regarding the importance of acceptance and acknowledging that no two families are the same. Short and sweet, I feel this is a wonderful tale to be added to anyone's book shelf and TBR list.</p>

Short, simple and sweet. I think our children need to read books with more diversity from an early age. We don't give kids enough credit and it is a shame some books like this are banned in places. Also the artwork is really cute.

Like the story with the two daddies, this little book tells us in colorful and cute pictures all about a little family.

A Tale of Two Mommies is about a boy having two moms. Story starts at beach boy playing with his friends who ask him questions about who performs what task that are usually done by dad.

Descriptions says lot about the book. Theme and lesson of this one was the same as of 'A Tale of Two Daddies' with beautiful illustrations and narrated in easy rhymes but questions asked by friends were different and he answered them very nicely. In this story it was mentioned that boy was sometimes facing problem of having same sex parents and some kids at school were not nice with him. It was noticeable how loving the boy was brought up by his both mommies in the story. I liked to learn about author and illustrator at the end of the book and how illustrator made art for book.

Lesson from the story: It is very important to teach children that not to look differently at kids who have different family. This story represented it in very simple way that everyone should accept family of same sex parents or different family and also help in bringing awareness that different kinds of family also do normal chores and love their children equally.

Overall, story was cute with simple yet important message. It should be in kids sections of all libraries.

Books like these are necessary.
I believe it's important to teach kids about different types of families since they are little so they can grow with a sense of respect for what is different.

This book was not my favourite but I celebrate the author for writing it and hope I can continue reading these types of books that teach love and acceptance.

Aimed at 4-8 year olds, this is a brilliant book for celebrating diversity and modern families. I'll share here the same review that I shared for the sister book 'A Tale of Two Daddies'; This is a very sweet book full of colour and lovely illustrations, with short and simple text. I had assumed that this book would be more about the 'why' of having two daddies as opposed to the things that daddies do, but I was pleased that the last page was representative of having two daddies working together to parent. I think this book would be great to help normalise same-sex parenting for children, but I can't help feeling that this book could have done a little bit more. I can't fault the illustrations though, they are really fab!

A Tale of Two Daddies by Vanita Oelschlager. Illustrated by Kristin Blackwood and Mike Blanc. VanitaBooks, LLC. Children's Fiction. LGBTQIA. This rhyming story focuses on a cute little girl with braids who has two fathers who are in a same-sex relationship; one is dressed more casually than the others. She answers a multitude of innocent questions from her little friends, who are curious about this nontraditional family. Thanks to NetGalley and VanitaBooks for providing this ebook for review.

Loved reading this book. It was nice how mommy and momma were not as per stereotypes. I liked how they raise the kid.

Cute book for young children that touches on the relationship between an LGBT couple and their child. Wished it went even deeper into the subject for slightly older children, but thought it was a decent start to the conversation.

This was short and sweet. It beautifully portrayed the homosexuality and make the children understand the value of family. The illustrations were beautiful and the little conversational poetry among the children was cute.

Like "A Tale of Two Daddies," this book centers around a conversation between friends which show that both parents contribute equally to the responder's upbringing. The message to be inferred is that chores are not divided by what we would traditionally attribute to one gender.
