Summary: This book is NOT about gay parents
Review: An earlier review made me think this book was about a little girl with male homosexual parents. I bought the book as a gift for a family with two homosexual fathers. I was disappointed to find that the book is NOT about a girl with homosexual parents. It is about a little girl whose parents have divorced and her mother is remarried: her "two daddies" are her biological father and her stepfather. The book explores Jennifer's attempts to maintain relationships with both "fathers." It is a nice (not amazing) treatment of this topic.

Summary: A powerful insight at a real situation for children
Review: Galloway conveys the difficult subject of this alternative lifestyle in a way that children can understand without feeling singled out in the world. Children should not be persecuted for their parents' choices. Galloway illustrates to children that are still okay even though their parents are often judged as not. This book is enjoyable, understandable and easy enough to read so children can read along as well. Every parent, homosexual or not, should buy this book and read it with their children. I believe that even a simple act like this can help end the fight against homosexuals.
