Our Extra-Ordinary Families

by Iyoko Okada

illus. by Yuko Uramoto

Not everyone comes from a “normal” home. This book tells the stories of three girls from three very different, extra-ordinary families. From divorced parents to half-siblings and being brought up by grandma instead of mum and dad, the three girls find strength in their friendship to face the struggle and strain that extra-ordinary family life can sometimes entail, while reassuring the reader that not having a “normal” family can only make you extraordinary.
