Thanks to Netgalley and publishers for a copy of this ebook!
This was such a cute children's book that my daughter wanted to read, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it.

5/5 stars

It was such a cute read. Loved it. This is a perfect read for kids. My younger brother loves this book.
This is a good book to help kids understand same-sex relationships.
This book should be used in schools to teach kids about same-sex because this will help them understand better.

Omg this is such a cute book. I love it so much, it's for middle graders but I absolutely adored it.
It's a story of a boy and his moms. He explains to his friends how his relationship with both mom works and ugh so cute 😍😍. We need more of this

I love this picture book! This is definitely something I would show and read to a child- even my own niece- if I came across this with them. Our main character is at the beach answering his friends' questions about his two mommies. The questions stem from parental gender roles while the answers challenge them. The story shows that these stereotypically gendered responsibilities can be done by anyone, including two mothers. The q&as are easy enough for kids to digest. Finally, the illustrations are stunning and the friend group is diverse!!

Wow, today is a day for winners book wise.
Such a very clever way to introduce a child with two mommies and the various ways to tackle the curiosities that other children may have. Some adults need to read this too especially given how close minded some people are.
I loved that the focus was on the kids and they never showed the mothers' faces.
Love it.
Thanks netgalley

Having previously read “A Tale of Two Daddies,” I knew I had to check out this one out as well. Once again, the innate curiosity and candidness children possess were captured with finesse in the questions and responses, and the eye-catching illustrations only added to the delivery of the overarching message. I hope children everywhere have a chance to read this for themselves!

After reading “A Tale of Two Daddies”, I couldn’t wait to read this version of the book and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The author knows about the curious nature that kids have and it’s a refreshing books because it fights against stereotypes and is so positive and uplifting. It shows a two mom family, a little boy is playing with his friends when the topic of him having two moms comes up. Personally I feel like it’s very normal for children to immediately ask questions like the ones in the book. As a kindergarten teacher I have observed similar situations in children’s role plays - after a discussion about who will drive, it was declared okay to have two moms if one of them can do it really well. The book just makes so much sense to me and as a lesbian who’ll (hopefully) have my own little two mom family one day, the book’s making me so happy. A lovely book perfect for ages 3+

Thank u so much to Netgalley and the publisher for sending me a copy of this amazing book. I am so glad I was finally able to open the file! I'll insert my Goodreads review below, thanks again!

"Ngl, this was cute as hell 😍

This is an art book which presents us a boy's day on the beach with two of his friends. In each page, a friend asks a question, and the little boy answers it in the following two. The book is very short and is told in rhymes which makes it perfect for reading it to the little ones of the family. Also, the palette of colors was stunning and visually pleasent!! ❤️

Highly recommended!!"

Just like A Tale of Two Daddies, I really enjoyed this and I think it is great read for young kids. Both parents and kids will enjoy reading this together and building relationships.

So cute! I liked this one better than the one about the daddies, the talk was so beautiful. I wish I had a kid to read this for them

I mainly picked this up for the book cover but god DANG this was such a fun ride! It was great curling up in my bed while doing online school and just getting sucked into the characters’ world and their relationships

I've read the companion book, A Tale of Two Daddies, and I love how both books are different enough that having both makes perfect sense. Just like in A Tale of Two Daddies, I like that neither parent is consistently cast into traditional gender binary roles. I also like that the book doesn't neglect racial representation either. I love that for both books, the focus is on what each parent does instead of the question of why there are two mommies or two daddies, which is a question that kids either don't ask or will just ask once. It's just a really nice way to help people understand from a young age and in a fun way.

This is a short picture book which provides a great platform for talking about the big and small things a child needs their parent/caregiver for as well as helping to normalise parental units consisting of two mothers. It's written in rhymes and set up as a conversation between a kid and two of his friends, with the friends asking curious questions about which mom covers which parenting jobs seeing as there are two moms. I liked the illustrations - they were bright and colourful.

However part of me does hope that we are moving towards a place where a book like this won't really be 'necessary' in the sense that children won't think of it as a novelty that some of their friends have same sex parents. This book was published in 2011 so I would like to make myself believe that we've made some headway towards that place within the last decade.

This was the adorable story of a child with two mothers, who is bombarded with questions from his friends who find it out of the world. What I loved the most was the carefree, casual attitude of the boy, who finds it completely normal that he has a momma, and a mommy, who play the role of both parents to him. The illustrations were simple and demanded attention. It's a great attempt at normalizing LGBT in the society. Highly recommended for kids and parents.

A Tale of Two Mommies - and the companion book - A Tale of Two Daddies are simple storybooks which show acceptance of a family setting where a child is being raised by two Mommies, or two Daddies. I thought these books were great.

Children can get confused about things they don't understand, and sometimes same-sex parents are one of those things. This book teaches that it is okay to ask and answer questions, and it is okay to live a different family setting than that of your friends.

Thank you to NetGalley for a free electronic copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Just like with A Tale of Two Daddies, A Tale of Two Mommies captures a child's look into the diversity of families. It's an important topic, and it displays it in a way young children will understand.

It feels real to how young children ask questions to learn about the world around them. As adults, I believe it's important to share this representation early on in a child's life so they can have an expanded view of life.

I will definitely be adding both books to my classroom and school libraries.

Thank you, NetGalley, for allowing me to read this beautiful children's book for an honest review.

A Tale of Two Mommies features a boy answering his friends' questions about his two moms. This is an adorable depiction of children's curiosity and what it's like to be raised by a lesbian couple. Representation like this would have helped me so much if I'd had it as a kid, so I'm thankful today's children have it.

As a same-sex parent and mommy, this book hit close to home.
The book, like its counterpart about two daddies, deals with the various roles that two "mommies" might take on in the family. The illustrations are cute, and the message is sweet and powerful. I'm absolutely a fan.

I had trouble downloading this at first. I appreciate books that present non-traditional families. Good illustrations - good message for kids and would be affirming for families.

A Tale of Two Mommies is about a little boy answering the questions of two curious friends about what it’s like to have two mommies. Essentially, the children’s questions illustrate the gender role expectations in traditional households and that kids will be curious about the division of parental responsibilities and roles when the gender norm defaults aren’t In play.
