Definitely an inclusive book! I appreciate how much detail the author put in while targeting it for children. It's definitely not talked about enough, good book!

I'm in love. That' it, that's the review.
Seriously, I know NetGalley needs at least 100 characters to consider a review done, but I don't have anything else to say except: read it, it will make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with this book in exchange for my review! All opinions are my own.
I thought this book was super charming. As someone who has many LGBT friends, I have always thought that LGBT people could be as good a parent as straight couples. It saddens me that some people think that people shouldn't be parents based on who they love. I think this book should be read in every classroom and library as LGBT relationships should be normalized for children. I also hope that one day the gender of the parents won't matter and the only thing that will matter is that the child is loved, protected, and cared for.

I just read this book and I read the other one, "A Tale of Two Mommies".
I wrote my review about the other one.
Now I'm here for talk of "A Tale of Two Daddies".
This illustrated book has the similar structure of the other. To the protagonist are asked some questions about is parents, in this case two daddies.
The little girl, protagonist of this book, answer without problem, saying which dad do something and with one to else. And also which things she does alone or she in not allowed to do.
The book is good for teach to kids how much it's normal have two daddies or two mommies. It's nothing scary or wrong. And I believe it's also useful for some adults with omophobya problems.
Like in the other, I would have to see more details.

The best way to introduce the idea of 2SLGBTQIA+ people to children is to frame it in a way that makes sense to kids. Every kid has a family, and kids are open-minded and curious about other people's families. This book sensitively and appropriately introduces a girl with two dads to a boy with (probably) a nuclear family. Readers are likely to engage in this book as a window (learning about others) or mirror (seeing ourselves represented) book.
Every library should carry this book!
Thanks to NetGalley, Vanita Oelschlager, and the publisher for providing an e-copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

i absolutely love that there is a children's book for representation with having two same sex parents, because there are families like that and it is very unseen in books! i know this will help a kid in that scenario

An absolutely perfect story to teach kids about different families! This doesn’t over explain it just shows kids that every family is different and yet in ways the same!! Love everything about it!
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Yes, this is so lovely!! It has a very satisfying rhyming scheme to it, the illustrations are cute, but mostly I love that it doesn't over-explain the concept. It's just simple and to the point. Parents, no matter their sex, have their individual strengths in raising a child, and having two dads is no different than any other combination in that regard. Wonderful book.

I liked the pictures, the language, and the story. I read some reviews that said this story isn't realistic, but I've known families exactly like this. One parent helps in one way while the other parent helps in another. This is the case when it comes to a mom and dad instead of two dads or two moms. Everyone brings different strengths and skills to a relationship, and the thing both parents bring is love.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

interesting idea of the characters "legs", you immediately remember your childhood and "tom and jerry" (and, relatively recent release, "onward", also with queer rep). the cover is very jarring, the colors are just terrible, although in the rest of the book they are fine. it's awkward that I had to read the work in "digital editions". too much trouble: you download the app, the file, open it, and it starts to glitch when you zoom in (because the font is too small to read on a phone) and then it doesn't flip well. i would have preferred to use the convenient "netgalley" and "kindle", not THIS.

A Tale of Two Daddies by Vanita Oelschlager is a wonderful story about a little girl who has two daddies and the little girl tries to explain to another child about how much she loves both her dads.

I’m so glad there is authors who are writing about this important subject, this book was so well writing and touching, I’m sure is going to help a lot of kids! I will definitely recommend not only for kids with two dads but for every kid.
Thank you netgalley and the publisher for this early copy.

Absolutely love the illustrations. Beautiful well told story!
Gorgeous💗✨
Thank you for the Advanced Readers Copy!

Sometimes I wonder if children's books pack more punch than most adult novels???
This one sure does. Coz even after handling such a sensitive subject, this is truly beautiful but isn't preachy or heavy, just perfect for young kids. This handles same sex marriages in such a perfect way that it will normalise every stigma around it.
It is just full of love and comfort like warm hugs on a cold winter day. It's definitely an important book to teach our kids. Just read it already.
Thank you Netgalley and Vanita Oelschlager for this wonderful book.

This is a great children's story about the way life works when you have two daddies.
A little girl and boy are chatting on the playground. One has lots of questions about what the family looks like when there are two male parents. Who cleans grazed knees, who makes breakfast, who coaches soccer, who tucks you in at night.
This was a lovely story.
Thank you to Netgalley for providing the ARC copy. These are my honest thoughts.

This is an amazingly well-written book for children that breaks the stereotypes of "mommy" duties vs "daddy" duties while also showing how parents in a same-sex relationship can easily parent a child no differently than anyone else.
![](https://netgalley-profiles.s3.amazonaws.com/avatar477829-micro.png?1711716560)
First off, I think this should be a must-read for every child whether they have heterosexual parents or same-sex parents.
I just loved everything about it!! The message that not all families are the same and that's ok is definitely a message needed for today. Not all children understand why some kids have two mommies or two daddies, so this easy-to-understand book will answer those questions.

I simply LOVED this book !
How simple it is written and do the job so well !
I think every school, library and every place kids are shoulds have this book !

Precious picture book aimed for children between the ages of 4 and 8. This book is written as a conversation between two children. The one child has two dads.
This is a sweet little book that teaches that families come in all shapes, sizes and genders. Some families have a mom and a dad, while other may have two daddies. This book teaches that no only is that okay it is also beautiful.
As always thanks to the publisher and netgalley for providing me a copy in exchange for an honest review

A Tale of Two Daddies introduces us to a little girl who has two dads, Poppa and Daddy. It shows that, just like any kid lucky enough to have two parents in their life, the two dads have different strengths and tend to different interests and chores. But just like any other kid with two loving parents, both dad's share a lot of responsibilities, too. More and more kids are growing up in what are often considered non-traditional families, and this just shows the beauty of a kid with two loving parents. ❤️
This is a must-have for libraries and schools to help broaden kids' horizons!
[Thanks Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to review this eARC in exchange for my honest review on the book!]
