The Zero Dads Club

It's Father's Day craft time in Akilah and Kai's class, but they don't have dads! They hatch a plan to create a special club to celebrate other family members instead in The Zero Dads Club!

All the kids in Ms May’s classroom are making cards for Father’s Day. What are the kids with no dads supposed to do? Akilah has a great idea – with her friend Kai, she creates a club for the kids with families that don’t include dads. There’s mamas and tias and babas and moms and abuelas! Find out how the kids celebrate their families in The Zero Dads Club, a beautifully illustrated story showing that all families are just right.
