Two original board books published by Tricycle Press last December, are just what I have been looking for. Each depicts a family with parents who are a same sex couple with a toddler. These are beautifully illustrated with a lyrical rhyming text that reflect the typical comings and goings; playing in the kitchen, going to the park, painting and baking. In each, the child is rendered gender-neutral, so readers can bring their own story to the telling.
