During the ups and downs of life, books like So Many Ways To Be Family strive to make it easier for children (and adults) to hold on to our self-love and our sense of belonging - especially as we get bombarded with images and notions of "what" a family is or "should be."
So Many Ways To Be Family seeds a simple, impactful practice of self-love surrounded by a celebration of families and all the varieties we come in - whether it be big or small, look alike or different, have a single parent or two!
Skye serves as a little guide towards the realization that there is no one way (or "right" type) of person or family. She gently takes the beautiful path towards accepting and embracing family - exactly as it is - imperfectly perfect. Skye reminds us that by staying consciously and habitually aware of our personal big picture, we can more easily deepen our sense of self, find our special space within our family, navigate relationships, and ultimately take our important place in this world.
