Library Mouse: Home Sweet Home by Daniel Kirk


Love Library Mouse!!  I love that they are a little longer picture book yet still fun and adventerous for kids!  In the lates Library Mouse:  Home Sweet Home, Sam and his friend Sara, discover that the library is going to have some "renovations" done to it.  While the work is being done the two friends will have to find a new place to live.  Sam and Sarah begin researching all the different types of houses and build temporary houses.  It soon becomes clear to Sam that there is really only ONE house for him, in the library.  Another great book in the Library Mouse series. 

As a side note, my favorite 5 1/2 year old LOVED seeing the page with the yurt, a Mongolian home.  He immediately made the connection to his own minature yurt that we purchased in Kazakhstan for him.  "Hey, that is the kind of house they have in Kazakhstan!...."
