PreS - These board books show same-sex parents engaged in daily activities with their children. In "Daddy", the men play with their toddler - dress-up, paper-airplane flying, strumming and drumming instruments, and having a tea party. Mommy and Mama spend the day at the parkgoing down the slide, riding the merry-go-round, playing hide-and-seek. The soft, realistic illustrations expand the simple texts.
