A young boy went for a walk and he saw a dome-shaped house in the neighborhood. He knew it would look like a ball when it was done. He went to the house and became friends with Terry. Both the boys got along well but Terry's house always remained in the young boy's mind. The house looked like a hive for a bumblebee and it had no corners to hide anywhere if they were playing a game. Terry and the young boy walked around town to see the other houses and they were amazed to see some of the dwellings. There was a house on top of a tree, they spotted one deep under the ground, fancy cottages, and places to rent. They also saw apartments, wooden cabins with chimneys, motor homes, and trailers, etc.
Terry's Round House by Kenneth R. McClelland takes readers on a fascinating journey of interesting houses people call home. The illustrations are bright and colorful and they make those homes tangible to readers. It is a good way for children to learn about different types of dwellings, just how the young boy and Terry learned as they walked through the town. Tutors and parents will find this book useful when it comes to introducing children to different types of homes and that makes it a good book to use for storytelling and read-aloud sessions in classrooms and homes.
