"After the last brick is laid, a family moves into a brand-new house. As the family grows, the house delights in the sound of laughter echoing in its halls and the pitter-patter of little feet traversing its floors and realizes it is no longer just a house. It has become a home--their home. One day, the family packs up, and with tears in their eyes, they say goodbye. The house doesn't know if it can ever be happy again until a special couple appears and it begins to feel a sliver of hope. Perhaps it can become a home once more... Told from the perspective of a house, this story's heartfelt text and beautiful illustrations convey a warmth of feeling as two families change and grow at different times within the same four walls."--Provided by publisher.
