HOME, SWEET HOME

MOIRA BUTTERFIELD * CLAIR ROSSITER

CLICK ON THE BOOK COVER TO ORDER!

If you think about your home – what is it like? Does it have walls and a roof? A front door and a kitchen?
 
But not all homes are the same.
 
This unique mix of facts and true-life stories has been carefully selected to inspire the imagination. Explore homes from around the world and through time: such as those in Turkey 9,000 years ago with no doors, or the portable wallpaper that Louis XI had moved from chateau to chateau to decorate his walls. 
 
It's a celebration of different cultures and of what is central to each and every home: the family who lives there!
​"A fun read from Kane Miller is this dynamic book about different houses and homes around the world. Home, Sweet Home is a resource to help children relate to others around the world as they see what makes home special to everyone and also to admire the differences in living situations across the globe. ... Highly recommended for ages 5 and up."
-- Liberty Reads

"Butterfield's text combines facts about the world's diverse types of homes to introduce young readers to the amazing diversity among people and their abodes. Rossiter's captivating and detailed illustrations will not only delight young readers but also expose them to many different ways of life. Highly recommended for inclusion in any home, school or public library's collections."
-- The Pirate Tree

"Another must-have, visual stunner, Home, Sweet Home is a beautiful look around the world at the various types of homes people live in and have lived in."
-- Bedtime Stories Forevermore

"The factual tidbits and instructive illustrations are fascinating."
-- Jamie Bills
