More about the book
Annie and Khalil meet a new friend on the playground and spend some time explaining how they - although so different in appearance - are siblings. They recognize their similarities, explore their differences, and celebrate their special and unconditional bond. This book is intended as a tool for children in multiracial sibling dynamics formed by adoption, but it can be enjoyed by everyone! It is a great way for families to learn about and grow empathetic toward unique family compositions that may not mirror their own. It is worth noting that this book is based on the author's own personal family dynamic and that her family's experience as a transracial family is not a representation of all transracial families. With the amount of curious (and sometimes imposing) questions they get asked when they are existing as a family outside of their home, Opheim wanted to create a tool for her children when their peers ask them curious questions and she is not around with all the words.
