And Tango Makes Three by Justin Richardson
The true story of two male penguins adopting a baby penguin together at the New York Zoo. I thought it was great--not preachy or overly message-y at all--just a touching story about what makes a family.

A wonderful, true story about three penguins at the Central Park zoo. Two male penguins raise Tango as a hatchling and at the time of the of the 10th anniversary book were still at the Central Park Zoo.
