Have you ever imagined where animals call home? Can you imagine a home outside the conventional four walls humans live in? A Home Can Be... explores the diverse places that serve as a home to humans and animals. A home can be spun from threads or woven from leaves. A home can be a tent or a condo. A home can be a ship on the sea or up high on tree branches. A home can be carried around or static. A home can be in an underwater cave or underground. A home can be anywhere. For me, home is anywhere I am happy to go to rest. Author Stephanie Seidler outlines many more options for home in this lovely little book, including an alphabetical glossary of homes. You should check them out.
A Home Can Be… inspired me to appreciate my home and other creatures’ homes. It was a thoughtful and creatively written read. I was impressed with how much information was relayed in so few lines. Each home was described in four lines, two of which had end rhymes, and the story was illustrated with beautiful images that brought the words to life. The illustrations by Anastasia Sikilinda added color and substance to the exposition. The diction was simple yet rich and would be an educating challenge for young readers. Most of all, I liked the cozy feeling this book inspired in me. Stephanie Seidler did a great job with this book, and I highly recommend it for all children.
