Based on the true story of how two gay penguins in the Central Park Zoo helped to hatch an egg together, and how they became two daddies to the little girl chick Tango. Because it takes two to raise Tango.
Because not all families look the same. All that matters is that they love and care for one another.
Move over, Pingu; there are new cute penguins for children to idolize in town. Another advantage they have over you is that they are actually real.
'And Tango Makes Three' - Purely wholesome and adorable. Roy and Silo clearly loved each other and had desperately wanted a baby of their own as an expression of that love and tenderness, seemingly given so freely and easily to the other, heterosexual penguins at the zoo. It is a refreshing, touching gem for any child at bedtime. And it was published in 2005, at that.
Of course such a harmless look at real life has been banned. But when has that ever meant anything? Any book straying even microscopically from the Christian conservative, straight white male fragility and insecurity-default-and-catering gets banned. When has it ever stopped anyone reading it? If anything the whole ludicrous, archaic practice is self-defeating: people will want to read banned books far more than any others, since "banned" is an indicator that they're good.
I guess it is true: homosexuality may exist in all species. Homophobia exists in only one: human.
Final Score: 5/5
