TOGETHER, WE ARE FAMILY, by Emily Hamilton, Bloomsbury Children’s Books, July 15, 2025, Hardcover, $18.99 (ages 2-6)
Together, We Are Family, by Emily Hamilton, celebrates families, even when things get messy.
We may have ups.
We may have downs . . .
. . . but we always find our way around.
Welcome to a family that is the same as any other. Life is full of tickles and tantrums, piggyback rides and picnics, sniffles and snorts. We sometimes do things a little bit differently–but everyday life is pretty ordinary. And through it all, we are a family, filled with love.
From parent to child, this heartwarming and universal story celebrates all families, all together. —Synopsis provided by Bloomsbury Children’s Books
Author-illustrator Emily Hamilton shares how even though families do things differently, finding things that bring a smile is universal.
In Together, We Are a Family Hamilton shares real-to-life experiences — both good and bad that are all part of life, living and growing up.
Hamilton’s text has a rhythmic cadence, making it fun to read aloud. And her colorful watercolor, pencil crayon and Photoshop illustrations are full of humor and heart. The inclusive nature of this book should appeal to families everywhere.
