Welcome to the adventure of a lifetime. Five kids, one grandmother, a crazy family, Mafia hit men, and a tortellini salad - and what could they all possibly have in common? Join these five kids from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, on a fast-moving crazy adventure from New York to Sicily to Italy and back again. Just remember, nothing is quite as it seems.

Brooklyn Italian: Remembering Williamsburg will take you on a journey back in time. From the beginning of its existence in 1638 to present day, through the rise of industry, two world wars, the Depression of the late 1920s, the rise of the mafia and the immigrants who settled there in search for a better life. In their own words, long-time residents tell their stories of a time when on summer evenings, family and friends gathered on stoops to talk about the happenings of the day or just to share a cup of coffee, when children played stick ball, jacks, and hopscotch till the street lamps came on....

The demographics of family structure have come a long way. The typical mother and father figures can now be two mothers, two fathers, single parents, or mother and father. We come from all cultures and continents, and family is more than Mom and Dad. In many cultures the immediate family consists of the mother, father, and grandparents, with other extended family members. The Colors of Family needed to be written to show children that family is more about the people who love and care for you than what society teaches us it "should" be. There's no right or wrong here...there's just love.
