Margaret is in love with this book. Very quick read, great for reading to a toddler on the potty.

This is an overly simplistic book about how a house is built - even considering a preschool audience. It bugs me that there's no mention of time; it makes it seem like the house can be built in a day. Still, the illustrations are crisp and clear, and facing white pages with bold text make it good for early readers.

Just used in a room full of kids with little English skills. We discussed the parts of a house and then they built their own using Citi Blocks. The simple vocabulary and illustrations were great.
