This is the most beautiful picturebook … The text has humour, but the softly lit illustrations are glorious … The ethos of the book is as gentle as its images: animals work together, are hospitable and polite, honour promises, share chores and settle quietly and cosily a night. Reading A House in the Woods makes you want to live there.
