A gentle tale for pre-schoolers, introducing the concept of sharing in the playground from multi-award-winning author Michael Rosen and treasured illustrator Bob Graham. The new, reissue edition of a much-loved tale from two picture book icons. From former Children's Laureate Michael Rosen comes a simple and poignant tale of the power of sharing, with superb artwork by award-winning illustrator Bob Graham. George says the cardboard house is his and no one else can play in it. It isn't for girls, small people, twins, people with glasses, or people who like tunnels. But Lindy, Marly, Freddie, Charlene, Marlene, Luther, Sophie and Rasheda have other ideas! One by one each child is refused access until the tables are turned and George finds out how it feels to be on the receiving end. A topical and perceptive book that shows that it is much more fun to share.

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.
