Alex goes on a journey to find the perfect pet. He visits his friends and plays with a singing pig, a curious panda, and many other wonderful animals – depicted throughout by rhythmic text and charming illustrations.
Along the way Alex meets his friends’ families – traditional, adopted, divorced, blended, IVF, same sex and others. These family forms are not presented as “different”, but are treated as a normal part of today’s world.
TESTIMONIALS
"This is a beautiful book about different types of families - donor conceived, adopted and traditional, and the love they share for each other and their special pets. This book is a wonderful introduction to "non-traditional" families. Highly recommended."
Kate Bourne, Chair of the Australian and New Zealand Infertility Counsellors' Association.
“This is a delightful book for parents to share with their children. It can be used to start conversations as well as make families laugh. Importantly it helps to normalise “alternative” family forms and enriches character growth in young children. This joyful and cheerful book is a must for every family.”
Dr Stella Kwong, psychiatrist, family therapist.

Bella Mei Wong is an author, teacher and single mother by choice. She has personal experience with many types of non-traditional family forms. Concerned that many children’s books focused on “difference” or the mechanics of conception, Bella wanted to write a book that treated these families as normal, with an emphasis placed on the common element of love. Yoko Matsuoka has loved picture books since childhood. She now works as an illustrator, making new picture books for children everywhere.
