Publisher's Synopsis
This rhyming story is perfect for reading aloud to young children. The impressive illustrations and the cadence of the text make it a delight for eyes and ears. One afternoon, a group of children visit an abandoned house. There are still photos in the frames on the walls-images of a remote past, of the old inhabitants. As they wander the grounds, the children wonder: who lived in the house? What jobs did they do? Why did they abandon their home? Did they go somewhere else to work? Or to follow a dream? This house that was once a home is now abandoned, but each room lets you imagine the presence of a happy person.
