About The Book

Home is where the heart is in this tender board book celebrating the simple pleasures of small town life.

In small towns, backyards are endless and full of wonder, good smells drift from kitchens, grills are heating up, and friends wait at the front door to find out if you can come out to play. Love for family, friends, and home leaps off the pages of this sweet ode to community.

Raves and Reviews

“. . . color-drenched and breezy, inviting toddlers into the pages, to a “homegrown” world. . .”

– School Library Journal, 11/3/23

“. . .the creators hint at the comfort and safety the characters feel as they go about a routine day in a tight-knit slice of neighborly paradise, actions that shine a light on the characters’ love of home.”
