"Valiant, valid, validating, valuable." - Gregory Maguire, author of Wicked

“Chloe’s wish comes true—not only will she not lose her favorite Uncle Bobby, but she’ll gain a SECOND uncle, too!  This tender story shows that love is love is love.”

— Brian Lies, author-illustrator of Caldecott Honor book The Rough Patch

“This is a heartwarming book about a loving family. I teared up reading this thinking of how wonderful it would have been to have read this as a child and how lucky I am to read it as an adult. Uncle Bobby and Jamie get to show Chloe that when they get married life does change, but only for the better.”

— Adam Rippon, Olympic medal-winning figure skater
