A House

“Enchantingly simple.”—The Wall Street Journal

“Brilliant.”—The Horn Book (starred review)

"Viewers will love playing seek and find.”—Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (starred review)

Caldecott Medal winner and #1 New York Times–bestselling author Kevin Henkes explores family, community, and belonging in this stunning board book. Brimming with interactive call-and-response questions, A House is a timeless and irresistible must-have for both very young children and emerging readers—as well as the entire family.

Where is the door to the house? What does the house look like when it is sunny outside? When it is raining? And what will the house turn into when its family returns? A home.

Caldecott Medal winner Kevin Henkes employs interactive questions, declarative sentences, basic shapes, and a limited color palette in this brilliant and classic picture book. A House introduces young readers to shapes, numbers, the weather, and the parts of a house, with a rhythmic, repetitive text and remarkable illustrations.

A House is an excellent choice for emerging readers, for social and emotional development, and for story-time sharing.
