A class party with room for every family

Bee and her friends’ enthusiasm for bugs and parties meets a more complicated question when their third-grade class plans a Mother’s Day celebration. With Bee having two dads, the event raises concerns about who is welcome—and she begins to see that other classmates may also feel left out. The story brings family inclusion and belonging into a familiar school setting, while the friends work with their parents to think about how the celebration can include and affirm different kinds of families.

  • For children ages 9–12 interested in school stories and friendship.
  • For young readers exploring family diversity and inclusion.
  • For families and educators seeking a children’s story about belonging at school.

Book overview

A bug-tastic and social justice-filled new early chapter book series! Bee and her friends love parties, but her third grade class's upcoming Mother's Day celebration makes her feel all squirmy inside: are she and her dads even allowed to go?

Bee and her best friends Sarah and Tiam--the Winged Wonder gang--love parties almost as much as they love bugs. So when their Grade 3 teacher announces that the class must come up with a winning party idea, the friends are so excited. But when Bee realizes that it's to celebrate the upcoming Mother's Day weekend, she is confused and worried: Bee has two dads. Is she allowed to celebrate, and are her dads allowed to come? But Bee quickly learns that she might not be the only one who's feeling left out. With the help of her friends and her parents, Bee must figure out how she and others in her class with non-traditional families can not only take part in the class party, but feel celebrated too.
