A House Made Of Books

By (author) Gritton, Frankie; Illustrated by Gritton, Frankie
Description:

What happens if you build a house made of books?

Simon loves books. He loves them so much, he decides to build a house made of books. Simon works hard, stacking book after book, until he has the perfect cosy home – a house made of poems and pictures, stories and songs.

Simon is very happy in his new home – until one day, a neighbour stops by to borrow a book. Before long, everyone wants to borrow a book from Simon – and the little house starts to look a bit wobbly. But when Simon’s house made of books comes tumbling down, his friends and neighbours come together to rebuild his home – bigger and stronger than ever before.

A beautiful, joyful picture book about community, kindness and connection that''s made to be shared again and again.
