Summary: "A joyful tribute to multilingualism that says Mother and Father in 18 different languages -- from Japanese to Kikuyu, Spanish to Finnish, Tulu to Tagalog... In addictive rhythm, just waiting to be read aloud, the text reflects amazing similarities across far-flung languages, while the illustrations capture the multi-ethnic, multicultural spirit with sensitivity and skill. Shifting seamlessly between landscapes and milieus, the cameos of simple moments between parents and children beautifully acknowledge commonalities and differences, and reaffirm the right of every child to belong to parents"--Page 4 of cover.
