Customer Reviews

A delightful trip down memory lane.

I work in an elementary school library and I came across Homeplace. This is a delightful book for children from 3 to 93. The story it tells brings back memories of simpler times. And the illustrations are superb. There is so much detail on every page everyone is bound to recognize an heirloom or tradition from their own past in them. I have recommended it to many children to take home and have their parents read it to them. I am 40 and I bought this book for myself.

A great story for bedtime reading!

My 5 yr. old brought the book home from her school library. I loved it so much and she enjoyed the pictures that we decided to purchase it. It's an excellent "sharing" book, I used it to talk with my daughter about the importance of what our ancestors did for us.
