The Disney movie Encanto has been all the rage for awhile now. Underneath the bright colors, fun animation, and incredibly catchy songs is of course a dysfunctional family. SPOILER ALERT! Basically, the Madrigal family in the movie has magical powers, but they don't quite understand or appreciate one family member's powers. Bruno becomes the black sheep, goes into hiding and they don't even talk about him. Well, that doesn't pan out so well since eventually everything starts falling apart. Moral of the story: it's important to talk with your family members about issues and work together to find a solution before things get to that falling apart stage. All families are dysfunctional in some way, because that's just how life is. Maybe you can relate to one of the dysfunctional families in the books below and become inspired to finally talk about the Bruno or issue in your family.
On a lighter, more fun note...You can also send your kiddos to the library today (Monday, April 18) at 10:00am for an Encanto movie sing-a-long! They will even be able to discover what their own magical powers might be!
