Ashley from Rainbow Families joined Rach and Dean for QUILTBAG Story Time to talk about his favourite inclusive book “Stella Brings the Family” by Miriam B. Schiffer & Holly Clifton-Brown.

Stella’s class is having a Mother’s Day celebration, but what’s a girl with two daddies to do?

It’s not that she doesn’t have someone who helps her with her homework, or tucks her in at night. Stella has her Papa and Daddy who take care of her and a whole gaggle of other loved ones who make her feel special and supported every day. She just doesn’t have a mum to invite to the party.

Fortunately, Stella finds a unique solution to her party problem in this sweet story about love, acceptance and the true meaning of family.
