A House Made of Books

What happens if you build a house made of books? Simon loves books. He loves them so much, he decides to build a house made of books. Simon works hard, stacking book after book, until he has the perfect cosy home – a house made of poems and pictures, stories and songs. Simon is very happy in his new home – until one day, a neighbour stops by to borrow a book. Before long, everyone wants to borrow a book from Simon – and the little house starts to look a bit wobbly. But when Simon’s house made of books comes tumbling down, his friends and neighbours come together to rebuild his home – bigger and stronger than ever before. A beautiful, joyful picture book about community, kindness and connection that's made to be shared again and again.Author: Gritton, Frankie,author,Gritton, Frankie,illustrator Contributors: Gritton, Frankie,author,Gritton, Frankie,illustrator Binding: hardcover Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language Edition: 1 Published/Release Date: 6 Aug 2026 Format: Hardback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Penguin Random House Children's UK Author/Director/Artist: Frankie Gritton Dimension (cm): 287x220x11 mm Package Dimension (cm): 11x287x220 mm Item Weight (g): 420 Package Weight (g): 420
