A young girl marvels at the beautiful colors in the world. She and her father go for walks to view the flowers and other things in nature. She comments how boring the world would be without colors to make it pretty. The story then transitions to how diverse people are in the world and in her own family. She talks about the color of her mother, father and herself and they are all beautiful. A wonderful book about diversity and bi-racial families. I liked the smattering of Spanish throughout the story. The illustrations were wonderful; simple, colorful and definitely added to the story. A wonderful book for schools. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via netgalley. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"Marvelous Maravilloso Me and My Beautiful Family is a story from the point of view of a young interracial child about what color means within the dynamics of race, ethnicity, and culture. This sweet simple story blends the colors of the world and the color of the people in her life and shares the experience of her culture in a complex multicultural world"-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I appreciated the messages imparted by American author Carrie Lara in Marvelous Maravilloso: Me and My Beautiful Family, and found the artwork from Italian illustrator Christine Battuz quite lovely. There is a clear didactic purpose here, as there is with all titles from Magination Press, but no more so than many other picture-books addressing identity, diversity and acceptance. Some Spanish vocabulary is worked naturally into the story, while an afterword explores how to have discussions about race with young children. Recommended to anyone looking for new picture-books about biracial and/or bi-cultural children. ( )
