Cronin, B.B. The Lost
House. PICTURE BOOK. Penguin Random House, 2016. $18.99. Content: G.
Two children are trying to help their grandad
find lost things so that he can go with them to the park. The children
are searching the house to find socks, shoes, glasses, hats and even his teeth!
When they finally find all the items needed for their outing, will they still
have energy left to play?
As children identify colors
and rooms of the house they also try to discover the hidden objects on each
page. The story is simple and the illustrations are very complex and
elaborate which works together nicely. Each room of the home is a
different color and filled with items in that color. The items are
extremely difficult to find and may frustrate some, especially the young, but
will keep others busy for hours.
