A charming celebration of what home means to all of us.
International besteller Emma Dodd explores what makes home special?
Just what IS it that makes home such a special place to be? A big cat and a teeny-tiny kitten find out!
Home's an extra special space
you hold within your heart
to keep you very close to me
when we must be apart.
A charming celebration of what home means to all of us, featuring a big, wise cat and a cheeky little kitten who discover that there really is no place like home . . .
What makes home so special? For this wise cat and cheeky kitten, home means lots of different things: home is a fun place to play, home is where all their precious belongings are, home is somewhere to feel safe and warm after a busy day of adventuring... Finally, at the end of the day, the feline duo realise that home is simply being together.
This is a heart-warming, rhyming picture book for parents to share with toddlers. From playing together to cuddling on the sofa, little ones will be able to relate to the tender everyday moments they share with their loved ones.
Emma Dodd's simple artwork oozes with love and emotion. Little fingers will enjoy touching the smooth gold foil details that feature on almost every page.
Perfect for bedtime, the pages start off vibrant with shades of pink, turquoise, and orange. Gradually, the colour palette changes into darker tones of indigo and navy as day falls into night.
Home Is Where the Heart Is reads like a long greeting card, which may be just what parents are looking for when it's time to put their young children to bed. The illustrations employ simple lines and patterns, often incorporating shiny gold designs and shapes that are sure to catch your child's attention and attract their little fingers. It's no wonder that Kirkus Reviews has described Emma Dodd's art style as "just right for preschool audiences." The board book facilitates holding by little hands; and its thick, durable pages are easy for young children to turn and examine. -- Melissa Rooney * New York Journal of Boo
