The Welcome Home

By Amy June Bates

Mr. and Mrs. Gargleson-Bittle are happy in their beautiful home but feel that something is missing in their lives. Making waffles was satisfying for a short time but when they felt they needed more the menagerie started growing. First is was a snail named Gordon followed by Louise the elephant and Sam the aardvark and many more. Their home was no longer too quiet but something was still missing. Will they find their missing piece?

This is a well written and well illustrated book that will make readers smile and feel warm inside. It is highly recommended for PreK – 2nd grade.
