Where would we be without families, to lift us up and love us, to make us who we are? This anthology celebrates all of the humour and warmth, the strength and joy that families bring to us. 
We meet a doting grandfather who makes a car out of sand for his granddaughter on the beach, spend time at a ghostly Christmas family gathering, even hear of a little girl who keeps playing the video of a sister's birth on rewind. Elsewhere, writers reflect on the way family links us across history. 
This moving selection explores the many things that "family" can mean.
