Summary: A delightful, simple treat of a book.
Comment: I have been reading this book to my 3 children just as my Mom read it to me when I was a child. Ours is the edition that was printed in the 1960's and my kids love this book as much as I did. It's a story about children and imagination, with wonderful pictures. Sometimes my kids ask me not to turn the page yet because they are noticing new things in the illustrations. Don't pass this book up, it's sure to be a favorite in your house too.

Summary: My all-time favorite children's book!
Comment: As a child I would read this wonderful book and let my imagination carry me away. I loved the ideas of not living in a house and filling my bags with treasures. "We Were Tired of Living in a House" inspired most of my backyard adventures, especially the ones in my treehouse. This book delights me still and I am thrilled to find it back in print. I have looked for it for years, hoping that someday my own children would read this book and feel its magic. My old copy's spine broke and the pages fell out because I read it so much as a child. It spent the past 10 years in storage because of its delicate condition but I missed its simple and beautiful message. When I moved recently, I decided that no matter what shape it was in, it was meant to be savored. I love it so much that I read it to my husband twice last week! I am grateful from the bottom of my heart for the reprint of such a treasure.

Summary: Fond Memories
Comment: We just sold our home last week, and we're still searching for a new house to purchase. I guess that is why the words to this book (that I haven't read since childhood) popped into my mind. I loved this book, and hope to find one of the earlier versions to read to my own children. They will probably suggest that we forget the whole house thing and live in a tree!
Wasn't this a weekly reader book?
