Reach for this book when your child starts noticing the shapes and structures in the world around them, or when they are in a phase of asking why things look the way they do. It is a perfect choice for fostering cognitive flexibility and creative problem-solving by showing that one thing can look like another through a different lens. Homes uses an engaging fold-out format to bridge the gap between human engineering and the natural world. By comparing everyday human structures to animal habitats, it introduces early scientific concepts through play. It is ideal for children aged 3 to 7, offering a rhythmic, poetic experience that validates a child's natural sense of wonder while building their vocabulary and observational skills.
