Building Our House by Jonathan Bean is based off of his childhood and family. Written from the point of view of his older sister, this story goes through a year and a half in the life of a family who move from a city to an open field where they live in a small trailer and build their own homestead, from the ground up! Perfect for kids who love tools, trucks, and construction sites, this wonderfully illustrated book offers a unique look at how a home can be built. Includes an afterword from the author with his own family photographs.
