Additionally, an empty house is provided for a child to use their developing art skills to illustrate their own special family.
The final pages of the book show that regardless of the differences between one household and another, it is love that binds them together and makes them a family. The variety of colors and shapes within each family is displayed by means of buttons and colorful crayon-esque drawings. A Handful of Buttons displays a wide array of family units, including large families, small families, biracial families, separated families, same-sex-parent families, and families that have adopted children. Not all families are alike, and helping young children to realize this early on can lead them to become more tolerant as they grow up. A wonderful message of diversity, centered firmly on tolerance and love.
