My Dad is My Uncle's Brother by Joe Lyward

The family is a thing of many parts – a complicated puzzle made of brothers, sisters, mums, dads, uncles, friends, grandparents. Sooner or later all of us get lost in the maze of kinship, trying to understand who is a great-uncle and a stepfather, who’s married to whom, what in-laws are, and why someone who’s only just been born can immediately becomes uncle or nephew to someone. The protagonist of this hilarious book, together with his father, ventures to climb his own genealogical tree, happily finding his own place as a part of this big, lively, crowded universe.

'There is a real sense of play in the way the characters have been drawn and collaged from a range of brightly coloured shapes' - The Association of Illustrators
