Library Mouse: Home Sweet Home

By Daniel Kirk

Book Overview

Join a clever little mouse as he proves that anyone can build a welcoming home in this heartwarming story about finding where you belong.

When Sam the library mouse and his friend Sarah wake to find the library being packed up for a major renovation, they realize they won't have a home during the construction.

In search of a new place to live, Sam knows research is key. With books about architecture in tow, he sets out to build a temporary home from objects around the library.

From a castle to an igloo to a yurt, Sam and Sarah construct a variety of houses--but none of them feel like home. Follow along as they discover the true meaning of home

Filled with gentle humor and memorable characters, Library Mouse: Home Sweet Home celebrates the joy of libraries and imagination--the perfect choice for family reading, classroom storytime, and bedtime.

"This is a fine use of light fantasy to teach a little lesson about building structures, and it will be especially useful to those preparing children for the disruptions that come with home renovations." --Booklist
