(PRWEB) January 8, 2004 --Considine says, It's important for children to see stories that show their types of families. I think this is true for single parent families, children raised by grandparents, interracial families, etc. There's a real void in story books for these types of non-traditional families."

When asked to describe the book, Considine says, Its really a simple story about a little girl and how she behaves with the family cat. She tries to pick him up, dress him up and play with him like a doll. The story is not about being different, it makes no big deal of the lesbian moms. They just are everyday parents guiding her to be nice to the cat. In this fashion, it celebrates the lesbian mom family as it is, living ordinary lives."

Kaitlyn Considine lives in New England with her partner of 14 years and their two kids. Binny Hobbs keeps busy illustrating in her studio in Sydney, Australia with the help of her dog Charlie.
