My Two Moms and Me
Families with same-sex parents are celebrated in this board book that follows busy moms and their kids throughout their day—eating breakfast, going on a playdate, heading to the pool for a swim, and settling back in at night with a bedtime story and a good-night lullaby. LGBTQ+ parents and their friends and families will welcome this inclusive and cheerful book that reflects their own lives and family makeup.
With artwork by acclaimed fashion illustrator Izak Zenou, this is a stylish, smart, humorous, family-focused book that will have babies and their two moms giggling as they enjoy it together. It's an ideal baby-shower and first-birthday gift.
And look for the companion board book, My Two Dads and Me.

Lovely book for toddlers!
Great book that includes diverse couples. Love that it follows a simple storyline. My wife & I (we’re a two mom family) read this to our 2 year old twins and they enjoy it. 4 stars because there are predominately femme-expressed characters in this book. For the next book, I recommend more queer/androgynous/masculine-of-center women.
I’m finally fashionable.
Finally, a book about having two moms where we both get to look fashionable! That’s worth every penny.
Inclusive Representation
This book is perfect for our family. I like how the families in this book change with each page to represent same sex moms and not stereotypes. A variety of ethnicities, which is important for our multicultural family. Little girl loves it
Add Some Diversity To Your Child’s Bookshelf!
LOVE this beautiful little book. My wife and I are trying to expand our family, and I have started collecting LGBTQ+ focused children’s books so that we can show our child families that look like ours. This is just like any other kids book depicting family life—just showing two mamas! Beautiful art, a must-have for every family who values diversity.
It's an okay book.
I'm trying to build a diverse library and I have gotten a lot of LGBT+ baby books so far. This one though? I'm not impressed by it. Maybe it's the art or the style they use for the messages inside, I'm just not sure. But it just doesn't grip me like the other books I have. Over all, it's a good book with a good message. But, personally, something about it just doesn't work for me. It's not the favorite on the shelf and I wouldn't really recommend it to someone else.
The message on the back cover describes the book well
I think this is a terrific book and will be sharing it at the LGT related workshops I give as well as try to get it into some public libraries. The title really helps to get little ones involved and to think about if they have done some of these things and maybe share that they want to do some. Three cheers for having biracial families included. The illustrations are wonderful and this is a book about families doing different things than just describing the family. E.H.Rowell
Good for teaching about Diversity
Good for teaching about Diversity. It is geared toward k-2 and focuses on familial diversity. The only thing that confused me was that I was not sure if the content's focus was about the family on the cover or different families. I didn't realize until after re-reading.
Good book, Amazon chemical spill
It is a good baby book as it shows how a typical day of the babys life is no different from my child's - even with baby's very different parental structure. I took off a star because book arrived with a chemical substance spilt all over book. I think it is soap but this is my baby's book and he puts things in his mouth so I have to thoroughly clean it before can be shelved
Cute book
Super cute (and we love how sturdy the book is)
My girls love it!
I used this book for my daughters to appreciate all types of families. They identified very well with the cover. The book wasn’t confusing for them either even though none of the moms are the same. The story reflects a loving daily-agenda from a child’s eyes of two moms’. Very cute!!
