Reviews/comments:

“Resources such as The Rainbow Cubby House and Koalas on Parade , are being used in our classrooms because they reflect reality and affirm diversity. It is timely that these resources are being produced in Sydney , because there is nothing else like them in Australia.”

Denis Carter, Principal of Newtown Public School , March 2005
 

“…She [Plibersek"s 4 year old daughter] sees these books as great stories, and that"s why I think they"re such effective teaching aids and that"s why I think kids will enjoy them so much.”

Quote from Tanya Plibersek, Federal MP for Sydney in Sydney Star Observer, March 05.
 

“…The teacher and the kids would like it because lots of kids like to build rainbow cubbies…

It would have been a lot better if these books were around when I was young, because when you tell them [teachers and kids] you have 2 mums they don"t understand, they ask you if one is a step mum. I couldn"t explain it when I was really young. Teachers could put it in the library for all the kids to use. Other kids in Australia could look at it. And we could go to the library and see it again if we want to. Most teachers have got [their own] kids so they could give a copy to them too…”
