An ABC of Equality by Chana Ginelle Ewing

Welcome To World Celebration by Moira Butterfield

This product was recommended by Dave Pedley from YourCub

From my very earliest years I was fascinated by all things foreign – different color people, the way they dressed, their houses, what they ate, the words they spoke. TV of course powered that curiosity as it still does, but books made it even more real – and I want my kids to enjoy this same pleasure. Welcome to the World Celebration by Moira Butterfield in words and wonderfully colorful pictures introduces children from dozens of countries and cultures, explains their diverse customs and habits, lifestyles, and language in a simple and entertaining way. A superb introduction to diversity and the world at large that captivates my toddlers night after night.

Where babies come from is a perennial kid question, and this book doesn’t gender body parts, so it’s super-inclusive and bills itself as a book for every kind of family and every kind of kid.
