Description

In the brown house, Claire and Wes were home. But home turned to nowhere and nowhere turned to anywhere. Then somewhere finally came, and finally, always.

This lyrical story is timely and thoughtful, depicting the life of two children thrust into homelessness and uncertain housing situations as they move out of their house, to a motel, to a shelter, and finally another more permanent home. Throughout, the duo is challenged by uncomfortable new places and inquiries from strangers, but ultimately, never lose their optimism or determination. They have each other, no matter at home, nowhere, anywhere, or somewhere--always.

Includes a poignant Reader's Note on how homelessness affects children and what we can do to help.

Featured in the National Building Museum in Washington, DC, Exhibition called Building Stories

Editorial Reviews

Shines a light on the hidden problem of unhoused children... The text and illustrations (with the children remaining in color while everything
around them is black and gray) brilliantly represent their fear and disorientation. At book's end, the family moves into a new house with the knowledge that it's love and family that makes a home...A compassion-and-action-awakening book.
--Booklist STARRED REVIEW
