In Every House, on Every Street

Product Information

Inclusive and joyous, In Every House on Every Street is a wonderfully fun way for little ones to learn about families and cultures. I first learned of this book after seeing a YouTube video of Harry Styles in his pajamas reading it for the BBC (you’re welcome) and it is so cute! Ultimately you see that although families and houses all look different, the love in their homes is the same. As someone who enjoys peeping through other people’s windows when I’m on the top level of a bus, or when the lights start coming on in the evening, one of my favourite spreads was the double fold-out page at the end which let me peek inside all the houses in the street.

You could also download our lovely ' Draw a Picture of Your Family Worksheet' to encourage children to discuss their families. Households of all shapes and sizes are represented doing the everyday things which make our homes so special and fill them with love.
