She feels a lug and a tug as she&’s lifted onto a flatbed behind a truck. A police car leads the way, a crowd begins to form on the sidewalks, children follow behind ringing the bells on their bicycles—it&’s just like a parade! She teeters and totters as she slowly, slowly begins her journey. Readers can watch and cheer along with the clapping crowd as the house turns the first corner.

When the house comes to a very steep hill, everyone holds their breath until she makes it safely to the bottom. Phew. But it isn&’t until she sees her family standing in her new spot that the house realizes it&’s right where it belongs—with them. Teri Roche Drobnick&’s heartfelt characterization of a house who is unhappy with a move pairs perfectly with Jennifer Black Reinhardt&’s playful artwork that brings the Victorian house to life. Back matter details the history of house moving in the United States and conveys more information about what went into moving &“The Englander House&” in San Francisco.
