Vikki1303: Amazing book, enjoyed so much reading it to my son )

Sara Geishecker: We love the entire If I Built A... series, and my son now has all three books in the collection. The creative storytelling keeps kids engaged, and helps them think about what they might do if they could build a dream house/car/school. The pictures are full of detail. It is a book that you can read over and over again.

Heidi Abele: While this book may not have the cadence of the first one, it is still a good one. I Want to meet this kid! Very imaginative, beautiful pictures. Bought it for my 6year old. He loves it!

Sam: I think I love this book more than my kids do. But that’s saying something because my son practically wants to live in this story. Just excellent. Buy it. You won’t regret it.

Sarah Lojczyc: Similar review as for the If I built a car book. This author is fabulous. We love both car & home stories. I feel like this book in particular is going to inspire a future architect.
This is a go to book for me to give to a birthday child of age 4. It’s fairly text heavy for a 3 year old, so in my opinion they might not sit through it every time. The language is fantastic & it is so creative. A great STEM book & So great for building vocabulary beyond what they typically hear (at least I don’t talk with such descriptive language!)
I don’t have a grasp on the upper age this might appeal to. I started reading it to my son at age 3 & it was a favourite then. I suspect it will be read on repeat for quite some time.

Amazon Customer: We love love loved this author's 'if I built a car' book. I brought this just because of that. This book is also extremely imaginative and nice to read. But I personally love the car book more. But this is good too actually. Its a similar pattern though.
Definitely recommend for budding engineers with fabulous imagination. 👌

ALS123: My son and I have been having so much fun discussing the rooms we would have in OUR house after reading this book! It's a nightly conversation now and has been a great stepping stone to discussing imagination vs reality, design, and dreaming big. Really fun book.
