About This Book

Andrew Henry Thatcher loves building things, but nobody in his busy household appreciates his inventions. So he sets off to a meadow and builds himself a perfect house. Soon, other misunderstood children arrive, each with their own special interests, and Andrew Henry builds each of them a custom home - until everyone realizes something important is missing.
