Diverse Family Relationships

When Mrs. Mack's students find out she's to be a grandmother, they discuss their own situations and discover that no two families are alike. This update of Simon's classic illustrates contemporary examples of blended and international families. Students in Mrs. Mack's class describe their families--big or small, living together or apart, with two mums or none--and learn why every family is special and important.
