Children's Book of 2013 In this unique construction book for kids
who love tools and trucks, readers join a girl and her family as
they pack up their old house in town and set out to build a new one
in the country. Mom and Dad are going to make the new house
themselves, from the ground up. From empty lot to finished home,
every stage of their year-and-a-half-long building project is here.
And at every step their lucky kids are watching and getting their
hands dirty, in page after page brimming with machines, vehicles,
and all kinds of house-making activities
As he imagines it through the eyes of his older sister, this is
Jonathan Bean's retelling of his own family's true experience, and
includes an afterword with photographs from the author's
collection.
