An important topic to write about to shed light and open doors and minds - and especially important for kids to have books about this who share these types of families.DonnaGalantihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16936331145444649588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-5111678758197460522016-05-23T14:08:26.445-05:002016-05-23T14:08:26.445-05:00Every family has their similarities and difference...Every family has their similarities and differences.

Since they all live in Portland, Oregon, it's no big deal within the framework of the story--but had I written it from the perspective of the best friend I would have been able to mine different possibilities. Maybe if there's a sequel...? ;) Michael G-Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07947421844294471304noreply@blogger.com
