The endpapers of THIS IS OUR HOUSE set the tone for a group of children who have found their way to an apartment-complex playground, each other, and a creative approach to problem-solving. For many children, home is an apartment rather than a house; too few books acknowledge that not everyone lives in a single-family house. The portrayals of children are widely varied and based on believable behaviors. And the happy resolution of conflict comes from the children themselves, a wonderful lesson in the importance of independence--and the equal importance of interdependence. The book forms the basis for many of the developmental concerns in groups of children ages 3-6--sharing, recognizing what people have in common, learning to function as part of a group, and respecting differences. This book is a wonderful way both to start and end a pre-school or kindergarten year; it quietly sets goals for growth and validates the ability of young children to achieve them.
