My Review:-This is a book I thought would be good to read and also talk about with my grandchildren. We get to meet Tiki, who is a bird and Murphy the dog, Murphy is the one that likes to ask the questions and Tiki has the answers as she flies all over the place to get the information that she needs to answer all Murphy's questions. The book explains how families are all different from each other, some have two parents/carers, some have one, some families have children, and some have none. We learn how some families have grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews. It also explains what happens when parents/carers split up. We loved everything about this book, from the illustrated that are colourful and fun, to the way that Molly has set the book out. We decided to read all the book first them talk about it, and I have to say we've been talking about the book for over a week now.  The grandchildren like to bring it out and pick something they want to talk about in it, especially asking about some of the friends they have at school and how they have different families to them. This is a great book for young and older children, there is so much to talk about throughout the whole book.
