Me and My Family Tree by
Joan
Sweeney |
||||||||||||||||||
For children who are
naturally curious about the people who care for them (most make
inquiries into family relationships at an early age), Sweeney explains,
with the assistance of a young narrator, the concept of a family tree.
Photographs become understandable once the young girl learns the
relationships among family members; she wonders what her own family tree
will look like when she marries and has children. A larger message comes
at the end of this story: not only does she have a family tree, but so
does everyone in the world. Cable's drawings clearly define the process
of creating a family tree; she provides a blank tree so children can
start on their own genealogy. (Picture book. 5-7) -- Kirkus
