A Canadian Children's Book Centre Our Choice selection, 2005 for the Hard Cover edition and 2008 for the Board Book
In the world there is a country
In that country there is a city
In that city there is a neighbourhood
In that neighbourhood there is a street
Children from preschool through grade one relish the discovery of their place in the world Learning the number on their home, the street where they live, the town or city they call home is a comforting reminder to children that they belong Illustrator/author Joanne Fitzgerald gradually takes her young audience from the whole wide world to one bed and the child in it Then she turns the whole thing around:
Me under the bed
Blanket on the bed
Bed in the room
Room in the house
All the way back to the world again
Governor General's Award-winning illustrator Joanne Fitzgerald brings her distinctive bright pallet and warm, cuddly characters to a charming book that will prompt young ones to look outside themselves to create their own place in the world A wonderful support for parents with children ready to learn their address, as well as a perfect adjunct to primary school program units about a child's place in the local community and beyond An irresistible page-turner
