Through exquisitely detailed
illustrations and two double
gatefolds, young readers are
invited to explore some of the
most unique houses from
around the world.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a tree house? Or how cozy it must be to sleep in an igloo? Have you noticed that some houses are extremely old and were built centuries ago and other houses can be set up wherever you go?
In Make Yourself at Home, young readers are introduced to ten extraordinary types of homes. Find out what it’s like to live underground or floating on a canal. Open up one of the two double gatefolds to see whether having hundreds of rooms in a castle is as exciting as it sounds, or whether a windmill is more your style. Any kind of house can be a home; learn about them all and choose your favorite!
