(4) PS This ode to diversity consists of simple observations about families, be they human, animal, or extraterrestrial. As in Parr's other books, the banality of his sentences is often subverted by the jokes imbedded in his flat, black-outlined, brightly colored illustrations: "Some families adopt children" introduces an image of three ducks out walking, one with a smiling penguin on its back.
