Aunts and uncles play pivotal roles in children's lives, bringing their own brand of love, adventure, and, sometimes, a touch of hilarious chaos. The Secret Society of Aunts & Uncles captures this unique connection.
Jake Gyllenhaal explains why he wrote The Secret Society of Aunts & Uncles:
Gyllenhaal teamed up with his childhood friend Greta Caruso to write The Secret Society of Aunts & Uncles and unravel the art of "Auntieology" and "Uncleology." Their witty storytelling and heartfelt narrative weave a tapestry of love, laughter, and the wonderful goofy quirks that aunts and uncles bring into our lives.
With playful and inventive illustrations by Caldecott Medal winner Dan Santat, this picture book bursts with colors and emotions that will capture the imaginations of both children and adults.
Whether you're an aunt or uncle yourself, a parent looking to celebrate these special relationships, or simply a lover of heartwarming stories, The Secret Society of Aunts & Uncles is a must-have addition to your family's bookshelf.
