Description
A beautiful and reassuring story for anyone who has ever looked for-and finally found-the place where they belong.When a child loses their home, they embark on a journey toward rebuilding not only their sense of place but also their sense of belonging. As they meet other kids living in a variety of housing situations and their lives intersect, they wonder:
What is home? Is it a place? A person?
Is it the stories we tell or the artwork we create?
Or, is home a feeling, a sense of connection, and, ultimately, hope?
This moving picture book will reassure and inspire young readers going through housing transitions as well as anyone who has found community and "home" in unexpected places.
Perfect for:
Young readers going through housing transitions
Parents, grandparents, and caregivers seeking books about moving or life challenges for kids
Readers seeking stories about finding a sense of home and community
Gift-givers looking for a heartfelt housewarming or moving-away gift
