A New York Times Best Illustrated book! A Boston Globe Best Children’s Book of 2018

Accompanied by Lane’s evocative art that suggests layers of history, Fogliano’s story turns this childhood scenario into a radiant poem about the mysteries of other people and the wonderfulness of home. –New York Times

Deep in the woods is a house just a house that once was but now isn’t
a home.

Who lived in that house? Who walked down its hallways? Why did they leave it, and where did they go?

Two children set off to find the answers by piecing together clues found, books left behind, forgotten photos, and discarded toys, creating their own vision of those who came before, in this deeply moving tale of imagination by Ezra Jack Keats Award-winning author Julie Fogliano and Caldecott Award-winning illustrator Lane Smith.
