A beautiful story that teaches kids that no matter what gender your parents are, they are just as much parents as their own.

DISCLAIMER: The book is given by NetGalley and the author in exchange of an honest review. All the review written is not related to any personal issues or connection.

TRIGGER: This is a sweet children book with LGBTIQ-themed. The illustrations provided are very lovely.

The book starts by a convo among three children in the beach. One of them has two mummies. He refers his mum as Mommy and another one as Momma. He also tells how he lives his life with them.

I do believe that children are the mirror of their parents. And with the issues and things that happen in the homophobic society, LGBTIQ actors are often marginalised. As an impact of that marginalisation, their children are often experience some unpleasant experiences from the people around them. Therefore, I am so blessed for reading this book. It is very cute and it helps - not only the parents but also the children for not being so judgmental but to understand and to see the arena of LGBTIQ from different angles and perspectives.

We read this story and the companion book A Tale of Two Daddies to our children. It was nice to be able to have this conversation through a cute illustrated book as many of our students have same-sex parents. We love to be able to normalize LGBTQ+ and diversity in our classroom.

Books like this are important. I always enjoy when books show kids different family structure. The illustrations are well done.

A sweet children’s book which supports the normalising of two-mother family.

I appreciated that this book isn’t in the style of “so who is the mum and who is the dad” or “which woman is the man in the relationship” but it is three children having a conversation, with childhood innocence, asking quite plainly; which mom does_____”

Short sentences and one-two syllable words this book is easily followed and clear for junior readers.

Thank you to the Publisher and NetGalley for providing me with this author review e-copy.

This book was adorable. I cannot wait to purchase! Such a good book for young children. Thank you for writing this!!!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! A diverse cast of characters, with a positive message. A wonderful book for all children, to show that families can have lots of different configurations.

Thanks to Netgalley and publishers for a copy of this ebook!
This was such a cute children's book that my daughter wanted to read, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it.

5/5 stars

It was such a cute read. Loved it. This is a perfect read for kids. My younger brother loves this book.
This is a good book to help kids understand same-sex relationships.
This book should be used in schools to teach kids about same-sex because this will help them understand better.

Omg this is such a cute book. I love it so much, it's for middle graders but I absolutely adored it.
It's a story of a boy and his moms. He explains to his friends how his relationship with both mom works and ugh so cute 😍😍. We need more of this

I love this picture book! This is definitely something I would show and read to a child- even my own niece- if I came across this with them. Our main character is at the beach answering his friends' questions about his two mommies. The questions stem from parental gender roles while the answers challenge them. The story shows that these stereotypically gendered responsibilities can be done by anyone, including two mothers. The q&as are easy enough for kids to digest. Finally, the illustrations are stunning and the friend group is diverse!!

Wow, today is a day for winners book wise.
Such a very clever way to introduce a child with two mommies and the various ways to tackle the curiosities that other children may have. Some adults need to read this too especially given how close minded some people are.
I loved that the focus was on the kids and they never showed the mothers' faces.
Love it.
Thanks netgalley

Having previously read “A Tale of Two Daddies,” I knew I had to check out this one out as well. Once again, the innate curiosity and candidness children possess were captured with finesse in the questions and responses, and the eye-catching illustrations only added to the delivery of the overarching message. I hope children everywhere have a chance to read this for themselves!

After reading “A Tale of Two Daddies”, I couldn’t wait to read this version of the book and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The author knows about the curious nature that kids have and it’s a refreshing books because it fights against stereotypes and is so positive and uplifting. It shows a two mom family, a little boy is playing with his friends when the topic of him having two moms comes up. Personally I feel like it’s very normal for children to immediately ask questions like the ones in the book. As a kindergarten teacher I have observed similar situations in children’s role plays - after a discussion about who will drive, it was declared okay to have two moms if one of them can do it really well. The book just makes so much sense to me and as a lesbian who’ll (hopefully) have my own little two mom family one day, the book’s making me so happy. A lovely book perfect for ages 3+

Thank u so much to Netgalley and the publisher for sending me a copy of this amazing book. I am so glad I was finally able to open the file! I'll insert my Goodreads review below, thanks again!

"Ngl, this was cute as hell 😍

This is an art book which presents us a boy's day on the beach with two of his friends. In each page, a friend asks a question, and the little boy answers it in the following two. The book is very short and is told in rhymes which makes it perfect for reading it to the little ones of the family. Also, the palette of colors was stunning and visually pleasent!! ❤️

Highly recommended!!"

Just like A Tale of Two Daddies, I really enjoyed this and I think it is great read for young kids. Both parents and kids will enjoy reading this together and building relationships.

So cute! I liked this one better than the one about the daddies, the talk was so beautiful. I wish I had a kid to read this for them

I mainly picked this up for the book cover but god DANG this was such a fun ride! It was great curling up in my bed while doing online school and just getting sucked into the characters’ world and their relationships

I've read the companion book, A Tale of Two Daddies, and I love how both books are different enough that having both makes perfect sense. Just like in A Tale of Two Daddies, I like that neither parent is consistently cast into traditional gender binary roles. I also like that the book doesn't neglect racial representation either. I love that for both books, the focus is on what each parent does instead of the question of why there are two mommies or two daddies, which is a question that kids either don't ask or will just ask once. It's just a really nice way to help people understand from a young age and in a fun way.

This is a short picture book which provides a great platform for talking about the big and small things a child needs their parent/caregiver for as well as helping to normalise parental units consisting of two mothers. It's written in rhymes and set up as a conversation between a kid and two of his friends, with the friends asking curious questions about which mom covers which parenting jobs seeing as there are two moms. I liked the illustrations - they were bright and colourful.

However part of me does hope that we are moving towards a place where a book like this won't really be 'necessary' in the sense that children won't think of it as a novelty that some of their friends have same sex parents. This book was published in 2011 so I would like to make myself believe that we've made some headway towards that place within the last decade.
