Me and My Family Tree by Joan Sweeney, illustrated by Emma Trithardt.
For Patty, a very special branch of our family tree, J.S.
To every branch of my beautiful family tree, E.T.
This is me and my family.
I have a brother, a mommy, and a daddy, grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins, too.
How are they all related to me?
I'll show you on My Family Tree.
First, I start with me.
Then comes my big brother, Alan.
We're both part of My Family Tree.
These are my parents, Mommy and Daddy.
They're part of My Family Tree.
This is my mommy's mama, my grandma.
This is my mommy's daddy, my grandpa.
This is my daddy's mommy, my nana.
And this is my daddy's daddy, my papa.
They're all part of My Family Tree.
Mommy has a sister, my Aunt Sally.
She's married to my cousin, uh, my Uncle Lee.
They have a daughter, my cousin, Alice.
They're all part of My Family Tree.
Daddy has a brother, my Uncle Jim.
He's married to my Aunt Margie.
They have two sons, my cousins, Jeff and David.
Daddy also has a sister.
That's my Aunt Pat.
There's Aunt Pat, and Uncle Jim, and Nana and Papa.
They're all part of My Family Tree.
Now, can you guess how I came to be?
Grandma and Grandpa had Mommy and my sister.
Nana and Papa had Daddy and his brother and sister.
My aunts and uncles had my cousins.
Mommy and Daddy had my brother.
And then, Mommy and Daddy had me.
One day, I may have children, and they'll be part of My Family Tree.
Think of it.
Everyone in the world has a family tree.
Just like you and me.
Here's the family tree.
There's me, as in the girl in the story.
Her brother, Alan.
And they're both connected to Mommy and Daddy.
So this line down here, coming down from Mommy and Daddy,
that's showing where they had kids.
And Daddy's parents are up here.
And this line shows where they had kids.
Daddy, Uncle Jim, and Aunt Pat.
You can try and trace some of the other relationships here,
or make your own family tree.
There's lots of resources on the web that'll help,
and I'll try and post some in the description for this video.
Anyway, that was

I don't make any money from this.
If there's ads in front of the video, it is YouTube putting them on.
But I have set all of the videos to being for kids,
so the ads shouldn't be inappropriate, at least.
Thank you.
