We Were Tired of Living in a House - 55th Edition by Liesel Moak Skorpen (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

"We were tired of living in a house.

So we packed a bag with

sweaters and socks and scarves

and mittens and woolen caps.

And we moved to a tree...."

So begins this whimsical tale of four small children, a dog and a cat who decided they were tired of living in a house. They try a tree, a pond, a cave and the seashore, but in each place something unusual happens to make them move on to the next place-and finally home.

Each appealing moment and every small detail are captured by Doris Burn's original drawings from 1969.
