Synopsis

When a classmate makes Jack question whether his family is "real," his mother takes him on a heartwarming adventure through the town of BobbleDeGook-a town filled with families of every kind. As they visit each home, Jack begins to see that what makes a family isn't how it looks on the outside-it's the love that holds it together on the inside.

BobbleDeGook: The Town with Love in Every Nook is a beautifully illustrated children's book that celebrates diverse families, LGBTQIA+ parents, adoption, and inclusive love. With lyrical storytelling and soulful oil-painted illustrations, this timeless story affirms that all families are valid, all children deserve to be seen, and every family deserves a place in the pages of a storybook.

Perfect for parents, educators, counselors, social workers, and librarians seeking books that celebrate diverse family structures. BobbleDeGook is a powerful resource for building empathy, sparking conversations, and affirming that all families-no matter how they're formed-deserve to be seen, celebrated, and included in the communities we call home.
