Publisher Description: "While the topic of moving is covered in a multitude of picture books, this one looks at it from a difficult perspective that most authors choose to avoid or gloss over." -- School Library Journal (starred review) Almost everything Callie's family owns is in their front yard -- their furniture, their potted flowers, even Callie's bike. They can't stay in this house and are moving to a smaller apartment where most of their things won't fit, so today they are having a yard sale. With sensitivity and grace, Eve Bunting and Lauren Castillo portray an event at once familiar and difficult, making clear that a home isn't about what you have, but whom you hold close. |
