Illustrated by
Cecilia Concepcion Alvarez.
Antonio is embarrassed by his mother's female partner--Leslie dresses butch and has paint splashed on her overalls (she's an artist). Although overcomplicated by a subtheme about spelling, this is an otherwise appealing if message-driven book about a nontraditional family. Bright, happy colors in the full-page illustrations reinforce the optimistic tone. The text is in English and Spanish.
