Celebrando Todas Las Familias

by Abby Colich

Our communities are stronger when we come together and take time to understand, support, and celebrate one another. In Celebrating All Families, readers will learn the importance of acceptance and empathy as they relate to different family and household structures and how to practice these in their daily lives. Social and emotional learning (SEL) concepts support growth mindset throughout, while "Grow with Goals" activities and "Mindfulness Exercises" at the end of the book further reinforce the content. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text engage young readers as they learn more about empathy and inclusion. Also includes sidebars, a table of contents, glossary, index, and tips for educators and caregivers. Celebrating All Families is part of Jump!'s Celebrating Our Communities series.

Reviews

[Evangeline Grace · Rating 1 out of 5]

This is a book for elementary students and does not define what the family is. This book teaches that divorce is a normal family event. When in reality divorce is very grievous and should only be allowed in the cases of abandonment or adultery. This book defines marriage as “A legal relationship in which two people are joined as spouses” at best this is only a partial definition. Marriage
is between a man and a woman that have vowed to God and man to live together as one flesh.
This book is misleading.

An elementary level nonfiction book about families and how they can change over time and incorporate many different people.
