Creaky Old House

This a great story about loving what you have. I know I'm always looking for bigger and better, so a reminder that what we have is more than enough is certainly needed from time to time.

The book begins with the family telling how much they love their creaky old house and then the doorknob on the front door suddenly breaks. They try to repair it with a new screw, but when that doesn't work, the family heads off to find a new doorknob at the hardware store. Before long, every fix turns into something bigger until they've drawn up plans to completely remodel the house!

Great story, fun rhyming text and colorful pictures - I love this book!
