This is a cute picture book that tells us about where other people live. I read this with my niece and she absolutely loved it. She loved the pictures which matched the story perfectly. We loved how the story also included some animals as well . I can’t wait to read more from this author to my niece.

This is a book about the different homes we live in. Ann, did a wonderful job of comparing the text similar to poetry. The illustrations are full of color and details to keep the reader engaged with the story.

This book was such a delightful journey into the enchanting world of homes in all their forms. I read this with both of my kiddos and although they are older than the target audience, we still enjoyed ourselves! I feel like rhymes are captivating no matter your age and work their magic even more so when paired with a heartfelt adventure and beautifully crafted illustrations. The rhyming flows smoothly which makes it an excellent choice for classroom read-alouds or bedtime stories. What stood out to me the most was the message that home isn’t just a physical space, but a place filled with love, safety, and connection. I highly recommend grabbing a copy to share the joyous exploration of homes with the little ones in your life. It’s a beautiful reminder that home is truly where the heart resides!

My daughter thought learning about different homes was great and really loved the illustrations as well! Her reading level is fairly low and she was able to breeze through with only minor assistance. I myself thought the layout and all the different types of homes were great and the story flowed well.

The Places We Call Home is a children’s picture book designed for kids between the ages of newborn to six years of age. It is a cute little book that talks about all the different places that people live. Some people may live in a big home, while other people may live in a small home. Some people may live in the woods, while some people may live in a great big busy city. Some people may live with their families while other people may live alone. Regardless of where we live, home is where the love is. It is where we feel safe and loved. This is a great book that teaches children about different living environments, diversity, community, and belonging. The story is told in rhymes, which makes it fun and entertaining for children of all ages. The bright and colorful illustrations really helped bring the story to life.

The Places We Call Home is a delightful book that teaches children the true meaning of home.

It’s a beautifully illustrated book that parents can read to their children that explains the different places people live, such as the city, the countryside, or the beach. She even includes different places that animals inhabit.

It teaches the importance of love, family, and community. The overall lesson is that home isn’t a place but a feeling. Home is wherever your heart is, and it is a place of love.

A short book that shows the different places that people and animals can live. I think I would have liked this better if it was worked into a story. Each page is a picture and it says “some live …..( whatever the picture is)” and another different in the next page. No storyline. Then the ending makes note of how people are happy in families or alone. It rounds out nicely but the delivery could have been better. On the illustration side of things the pages are very well done and colorful.

This is a great book to share with young ones in your life. Curl up together and read about different home structures, both physically and from within. Learn about where different people can live and how they may set up their homes. The illustrations are very well done and vibrant. They will engage the youngest of readers learning more about homes. Most importantly, home is where all the love begins!

This book is such a lovely way to teach kids that “home” does not mean the same thing to everyone, and each one looks different. This is the kind of thing my daughter knows, but probably didn’t have much awareness of and I liked the fact that this book allowed for that discussion to occur naturally.
The illustrations really helped to bring this book to life. They are what really got both my kids interested in the story and kept them invested the whole way through. We have read a few books by this author now but I think, overall, this is one of our favourites. This is a fantastic book that I would highly recommend for young children.

We read this book tonight before bed and we all enjoyed reading it. The book is both engaging and educational, making it an excellent choice for early readers and families. The illustrations are colorful, engaging, helping children visualize the different settings and experiences of the words described. It introduces the notion that home can mean different things to different people, encouraging empathy and understanding because people enjoy different settings at home . The book’s descriptive text and fun font make reading each page enjoyable. Can’t wait for more from author Kim Ann.

This is an adorable book for young children about all of the different kinds of places that people call home. The illustrations are well done and colorful, and the story is easy to understand and digest for youngsters. I would definitely recommend this for parents and teachers of preschoolers or early elementary age children, and possibly even those who are going through an adjustment at home, such as a divorce or moving to a new location. My children are a bit old for this one, but they still liked looking at it with me. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a way to speak to their child about how families and their homes can look and feel different, but still make them happy.

Super cute story about the places we call home. Big cities, small towns, different weathered places. Even places different animals call home. Bottom line is love begins at home, no matter what type of home you have. Pictures are cute as well.

This is a cute story about where our homes really are. I read this with my seven year old son and we both liked it. It had cute illustrations. The moral of the story is perfect. I also love when children’s books rhyme. It just makes them flow nicely and keeps the attention of kids.

This book is great for younger children. I’d say first libraries, bedtime stories, and kindergarten classes is where this book belongs! Super cute and the illustrations are wonderful! This book takes you through the many places where people and animals live. Each unique, but all homes. From big cities to countryside homes. Each has their own special qualities and all have love within them. This book reminds young readers that it doesn’t matter where you live, but that home is where all love begins. I really enjoyed sharing this book with kids. I would have them point out different things on different pages. Find who lives in hills on the ground, find who lives in cozy dens, and so on. I love making books interactive along the way. This was such a cute and wonderful book.

The Places we Call Home is a wonderfully illustrated children book. It is easy to read and rhymes and flows. It is a good reminder that home can look very different to each person. This book would be good for our youngest readers (preschool). The illustrations are bright and colorful and assist the story. I like that the author included animals homes as well.

I read this book with my two sons – D (age 6) and S (age 2.5). They absolutely loved it! This book takes a look at all the different places that animals and people can live matched with fun, rhyming words.

A review from an actual kid:
D (age 6) – “Animals and people live in all different places.”
S (age 2.5) – “They all have a home like me!”

We gave this book 5 out of 5 stars.

What a cute story. It’s true home is where the heart is. But we don’t all live in houses. I love that the author included the outdoor critters as well. The pictures are bright and colorful. Opening the storytime for conversations. The writing is clear and easy for our little ones to follow. Another great open ended book. A must have for all of our bookshelves.
