The other day at school, a classmate got angry at me and said, "Clown!"
I thanked him and gave him a kiss.
He didn't understand but we became friends again."
"What do you want to be when you grow up" is a question that fascinates kids and this book explores two occupations -- healing the soul (clown) and healing the body (doctor). Plus there's a need for books showing families of all types so children can see themselves and their families represented in books.

Jos Carlos Andrs is a famous author in Spain. He is a professional clown and children's theater actor.

Natalia Hernandez has illustrated several picture books in Spain. Her unique style is reminiscent of vintage-style art.

Industry Reviews
"I'm a huge fan of books show diversity in families. In MY DAD IS A CLOWN, readers see a young boy who is proud of the occupations of both of his dads.....Fun picture book that shows the love of a boy for both of his dads. A fun addition to any school and home library." - Kids Books Central "... a sweet story about a boy who loves and is proud of his parents. We also see a loving relationship between the boy's parents, who happen to both be men....good for English and Spanish language learners, and is a sweet story about family love to add to your bilingual collections and your storytime rotation. Put this one on your shelves: there are families out there who need and deserve to have their stories told." - Mom Read It blog
