The Little House Paperback - 1978
by Virginia Lee Burton
The little house first stood in the country, but gradually the city moved closer and closer. "This engaging picture book clearly presents a wealth of information".--Booklist. Caldecott Medal winner.
Summary
Virginia Lee Burton won the Caldecott Medal in 1943 for her memorable picture book The Little House, a poignant story of a cute country cottage that becomes engulfed by the city that grows up around it. The house has an expressive face of windows and doors, and even the feelings of a person, so she’s sad when she’s surrounded by the dirty, noisy city’s hustle and bustle: “She missed the field of daisies / and the apple trees dancing in the moonlight.” Fortunately, there’s a happy ending, as the house is taken back to the country where she belongs. A classic!
