SELECTED FOR THE BOLOGNA RAGAZZI AWARD'S AMAZING BOOKSHELF
"This book does an important job in reassuring children." The Bookseller
"Youngsters with an interest in vehicles especially, will love the visuals, even if a house move isn’t imminent." Books for Keeps
When a boy is told that they are moving house, he envisions his house lifted by cranes, winding its way through narrow streets, and even sailing across the sea… But his mother helps him understand: even if they must leave their house behind, the two of them will still be on an adventure.
