What a clever idea to give a house feelings and friends! The book also touches on some important lessons, not only for this age group, but for all readers. I enjoyed your insights about the lessons the target group can glean from this story. Great review! Thanks.

Interesting that the fear of change is actually worse than the change itself. Thanks for a great review!

Change is such an important concept for children to grasp and accept. Many adults still cannot cope with change. Perhaps something like this book would be a useful tool for educational purposes. Thanks for the review!

Yeah you are right! Many adults are unable to accept change because they were not taught to accept it when they were young.

Your review is short and concise, yet impactful. I like how you see the themes in such a positive way, and that it would too much for children below 5 years of age. Despite the target audience, I think this book would resonate as well to adults. Thanks for this review! :tiphat:

Yeah it does have lesson for adults as well. Many adults out there are not ready to accept change and this book can help them cope with this problem.
Thanks a lot for appreciating :tiphat:

Thanks for the great review. It is not always easy to come to terms with change. This book can be a good aid in teaching children.

I was confused when I read "Zoe is a happy house" I thought that you had made a mistake but as I continued reading I understood what you were talking about. This book is relevant to children. It is relevant to how children think and how they see the world around them. It is also relevant to children's age group because the themes are not scary or too intense for children to understand. Wonderful review.

The book is a good initiative to make children accept change rather be scared of it. Thanks a lot for commenting :tiphat:

Seems like a good way to teach something to children that would also hold their attention. I also like the theme of change as it is relevant, not only to children, but to everyone else as well. Nice review!
