Home Is Where the Birds Sing by Rylant, Cynthia

A beautiful and poignant meditation on what makes a home from Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant.

There are so many things, both big and small, that make a place feel like home. Home is where you might have a special nickname or a special toy. It's where you might have a snack or a nap or a bath--or all three! Whether home is a city apartment or a country cottage, it's a place you want to return to again and again. Celebrate all kinds of homes--and all kinds of families--in this cozy, lushly illustrated ode to the universal feeling of being at home.
