Description

Join the Squirrel Family on a house-hunting adventure as they explore eccentric and extravagant homes by iconic architects in this delightfully illustrated picture book.

The Squirrel Family is expanding and decides it's time to move house. They seek out the help of Mr. Raccoon, a well-known real estate agent, who accompanies the family as they discover eccentric and extravagant houses that, unbelievably, actually exist and are among the most famous in the history of architecture!

This entertaining story with an unexpected ending reveals incredible houses designed by the most renowned modern and contemporary architects, including Van Der Rohe's Casa Farnsworth, Zaha Hadid's Capitol Hill Residence, Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, Le Corbusier's Villa Savoie, and Antoni Gaudí's Casa Batilló.

Bonus back matter lists the real-life homes, their architects, construction year, and locations.
