K-3
Illustrated by
Holly Clifton-Brown.
Stella is anxious about her class's upcoming Mother's Day celebration: she has two dads but no mom to bring. The love-makes-a-family message is received gladly, but the story's scaffolding shows (e.g., it's implausible that Stella's classmates at her socially progressive school wouldn't know until May that she has two dads). The watercolors are sensitive and inviting, befitting the subject matter.
