Meet the Families is the first book of a series that children (and grownups!) everywhere will adore. Freddy and Frieda, the lovable field mice, travel the world over, meeting different kinds of people, teaching tolerance, and introducing the reader to many different kinds of families that Freddy and Frieda have come to know on their travels. Written in an easy-to-read rhythmic style, Meet the Families celebrates the differences in family structures, while showing us that we all share one thing in common: Love. Each family is special in its own way, and as Freddy and Frieda will tell you, "One of these families will be just like yours. They might just be living on faraway shores."
