This book was a nice child's book but I honestly don't get what the educational value is in it. Nice review

A house searching for owners sounds interesting! I am glad that the grammatical and editing errors were minor. Thanks for your review. Congrats to the author on the 4/4 rating!

An interesting story with a house that has it own feelings and will.

Charlie as the house is called can even be selective in the kind of family and friends that lives in it.

I must say that even adults will enjoy this book.
Books are lovely.

Charlie the house has been unoccupied for far too long and is looking for just the right people to move in. Beautiful illustrations and a nice flow and organization are to keep young readers engaged. Great review.

Thank you for the review. Well, although this book is not made for someone like me, I am sure that children will enjoy the story of a magical house that has a life of its own and that seeks a new owner.

This looks like a sweet little storybook and I can't wait to read it. I've always loved old houses. Some of them have such personality. Thanks for the nice review!

I love the idea of making the house as a primary character. After reading this I am thinking of naming my house.

Children aged eight to five years would love to read about Charlie the house. In fact, I would even read this for myself as I am a children's book reader since forever. A fun read for sure!

I love the personification of the house! Telling the story from the house's point of view gives the opportunity to provide a unique perspective on family and what makes a house a home.
