BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3), EL - ADVISABLE
APPEALS TO: MANY
Pippo loved his tiny house on the edge of the woods and doing the same things every day. Then everything changed. Weird new plants sprouted from his ceiling, his furniture ran away. Then his house ran away with him inside until he fell out the door into a lake. He barely survived and made it to the forest. Where will Pippo live now? Can he ever find normal again?
Wen has created a great allegory on life as Pippo finds the inner resources to weather uncertainty and meet unanticipated challenges. I really liked Wen's expressive and creative watercolor illustrations bringing cute Pippo to life.
