K-Gr 3–What makes a place a home? What does home feel like? Playing with blocks, enjoying an afternoon by the lake, a late-night story before bed—these and more can help define what a home might be for a child. But what happens when their physical home changes, perhaps due to loss and events out of their control? Hopefully, they’ll come to understand that home isn’t always a physical place, but the warm hand of someone they love, special moments with people who care, and taking time to appreciate the world, animals, and wildlife around. The lovely and poetic text will bring readers a feeling of calm and encourage them to slow down and pause. Heartwarming and striking illustrations depict families in embrace, moments of peace, and even difficult scenes of loss and hardship—but readers will always find love and home in each image. Both language editions are eloquent and will evoke feelings of tranquility and peace.
VERDICT A stunning and lyrical title that is a perfect addition to English and Spanish-language picture book collections for children, and an excellent choice to share with children of all ages.
