What is If I built a house about?
Jack imagines the most extraordinary house anyone could build. His dream home has a spinning kitchen, a room for flying, a racetrack, a robotic helper and a gigantic slide that twists from the roof to the ground. As Jack guides readers through each amazing feature, his inventive ideas grow bigger and more surprising. Told in lively rhyming verse and brought to life with colourful illustrations, this playful picture book celebrates creativity, imagination and the joy of dreaming up something completely new.
