As a former educator, diversity trainer and corporate cube farm denizen, I created the Runt Farm series to give children in nontraditional families a sense of their own rightful place in society. The Runt Farmers are a motley bunch who find one another and make a home on an abandoned farm. "Found families" are all around us these days and these adoptive, multi-racial, foster, blended and two mommy or two daddy families are becoming the new norm.
