A worthy addition to collections where the “The Truth About Your Favorite Animals” titles or the author’s “Flying Beaver Brothers” graphic novels are already enjoyed.
This is an appealing story with a simple message of equality, as mother and daughter challenge gender stereotypes on the baseball field and on a construction project. The artist’s portrayal of the pair’s very different physical appearances is a matter-of-fact nod to diverse families.
In a crowded field of Earth-origin and evolution stories for children, this is well worth a look for its simple, but not vague, approach to the topic. Alongside Marion Dane Bauer’s and Ekua Holmes’s poetic The Stuff of Stars, it will awaken young readers’ curiosity.
