Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Inspired by true stories that speak of love beyond color and gender, this collection of tales reveals the unexpected adventures of seven special animal families. For example, Susie and Alberta are two mommy dogs that become inseparable after surviving a dreadful storm and start raising their puppies together. Carlos and Ferdinand are two pink flamingoes whose biggest desire--to be fathers--is aided by friends who gift them with an egg for their nest.

Translated from the Italian.
