Local Rules by Jay Brandon
From Newbery Medal-winning author Matt de la Pe a and bestselling illustrator Loren Long, the powerhouse duo behind the #1>New York Times bestseller>Love, comes a moving meditation on the places we feel most comfortable, loved, and protected--wherever that might be. Home is a tired lullabyand a late-night traffic that mumbles in
through a crack in your curtains.
Home is the faint trumpet of a distant barge
as your grandfather casts his line
from the edge of his houseboat. With lyrical text and expressive artwork, Matt de la Pe a and Loren Long celebrate the beauty and love found in every home, no matter its size. They show how a home is more than just a place . . . People can be a kind of home--a family and a community that cares for one another. And the natural world is another kind of home, a refuge we share with every living thing on Earth. This deeply moving ode to the universal pull of home, whatever its form, is destined to become a new classic that will be cherished by readers of every age.
