Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

A host of picture books return in new editions. Margaret Wise Brown's The Wonderful House (1950), illus. by J.P. Miller, reappears in a larger trim size. Opening with a farmhouse ("Who lives here? A boy and a girl live here"), the book proceeds with a view of the barn and an assortment of animal homes (a nest, a turtle shell, etc.). (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Review by Horn Book Review

This deluxe edition--a large format jacketed hardcover--is a guessing game about which creatures live in a wide array of homes, culminating with a fabulous flying house piloted by a girl and boy who sail through the air to where they want to go.
