Recenzii
"At its heart, Our Home seeks to eliminate gendered notions around the work done at home and reframes chores as valued acts of love that involve us all (parents and children). The book emphasizes the often unseen labor of parents and follows diverse families as they engage in everyday tasks. It teaches precious life lessons to kids in a way that I haven’t seen before. And the illustrations are spot-on! Our Home is poised to become a family favorite, showing that caring for the home can bring joy and unity to the whole family."
