From the publisher

A beautiful and poignant meditation on what makes a home from Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant. There are so many things, both big and small, that make a place feel like home. Home is where you might have a special nickname or a special toy. It’s where you might have a snack or a nap or a bath–or all three!

Celebrate all kinds of homes–and all kinds of families–in this cozy, lushly illustrated ode to the universal feeling of being at home.
