Publisher's Synopsis
Your Family is a colorful and vibrant board book that celebrates diversity. Studies have shown that similar to our ability to learn new languages, our ability to easily distinguish between the faces of people whose race is different from our own diminishes over time. According to these studies, this capacity to differentiate is greatest before we reach the age of one and is nearly gone by the time we are twelve. This book is designed to take advantage of this developmental window and introduce the youngest members of our families to the radiant faces of people from a wide range of backgrounds. More than anything it is an invitation to celebrate the beauty and diversity of the greater human family to which we all belong.
