A lonely house all falling down; five homeless folk alone and cold. How can there be a happy end? Read on and see the tale unfold...a family of five house themselves, and live happily ever after. A full color tale for young kids..think Dr. Seuss squats a house. The Grinch never had it this bad.

Adorable!

I wish there were more books in this genre, and I would happily collect them all in order to promote them elsewhere. This is so sweet, and it's definitely great for young children.

The flow is a bit wonky in the poetry (personally), but it's still got a great message. (Though, I think there needs to be a little more focus on people fighting to stay in their home, since that's exactly what happens when people are squatting. I also think that this could show a stronger community message, which would improve it greatly.)
