About This Book
A little house sits happily in the countryside, watching the seasons change around her. But as the city gradually grows up around her with roads, trains, and skyscrapers, she feels lost and forgotten - until someone remembers her and finds her a new home where she can be happy again.
Why We Love This
Virginia Lee Burton's Caldecott-winning classic is a gorgeous meditation on change, nature, and home - the circular illustrations showing the passing seasons are pure magic.
