A HOUSE
From Children's Literature Legacy Award winner Kevin Henkes, this deceptively simple picture book introduces the youngest readers to a house, shapes, weather, family, and what it means to be at home. The interactive, call-and-response questions and remarkable illustrations will engage both preschoolers and emergent readers.
Where is the door to the house? Do you see any clouds? What does the house look like when it is sunny outside? When it is raining? What will the house turn into when its family returns? A home.
Caldecott Medalist and #1 New York Times-bestseller Kevin Henkes uses interactive questions, declarative sentences, basic shapes, and a limited color palette in this brilliant and classic picture book. A House uses rhythm and repetition to introduce young readers to shapes, numbers, the weather, and the parts of a house. A story about home, family, community, and belonging, A House is an excellent choice for emergent readers, for social and emotional development, and for storytime sharing.
Kevin Henkes is the author and illustrator of more than fifty critically acclaimed and award-winning picture books, beginning readers, and novels. He received the Caldecott Medal for Kitten's First Full Moon in 2005, and Waiting won a Caldecott Honor and Geisel Honor in 2016. Kevin Henkes is also the creator of a number of picture books featuring his mouse characters, including the #1 New York Times bestsellers Lilly's Big Day and Wemberly Worried, the Caldecott Honor Book Owen, and the beloved Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse. Kevin Henkes has been published by Greenwillow Books since the release of his first book, All Alone, in 1981. His fiftieth book, the picture book Egg, was published in January 2017.
