OurFamilyWizard is proud to offer the Many
Ways series. Since 2001, OurFamilyWizard has
been dedicated to supporting communication
between parents who are raising kids
from separate homes. Over the years, the
understanding of what a family looks like
has changed. But no matter a familys shape
or size, the meaning of family has always
remained rooted in love and respect. We hope
these books help children learn the many
different ways to be.
