A lovely story of a family creating their homestead. Lots of wonderful construction details, it reminds me a bit of the Richard Scarry book where the bunny’s house is built. ( ) Recommended by Lauren B. (and Henry) "Today is moving day. We left our old house in the city and are moving to the country..." A girl narrates this story of her family moving to the country and building a house from scratch, while they live in a "small home on wheels" in a field. The girl and her little brother help their parents as much as they're able, and meanwhile their mom grows and gives birth to a third child. Seasons pass as the house frame goes up, with chimney, roof, siding, and windows; then plumbing, wiring, insulation, wallboard, painting, and light fixtures. At last there is a "moving party," and the family of five spends their first night in their new house. Back matter: an Author's Note explains that the book is based on his parents' experience of buying a field and living in a small house on wheels while building a house for their family - which, in real life, took five years, during which time his parents had three children. Photographs are included. See also: Tony's Hard Work Day; Skyscraper by Jorey Hurley aucune critique | ajouter une critique
