Home is a beautiful book.
For a start it is beautifully presented with thick, glossy pages and illustrations at the start of every chapter (or “windows” as they’re called in this book.)
Then, as you read, there are some beautiful messages around what it means to be yourself and what beauty truly is.
Written from the perspective of 14 year old Leah as she experiences a strange sensation of flying out from her body in a park that makes her question her place in the universe, Home is a story of teenage self analysis and discovery. Spending time away at Summer camp and making new friends and working through conflict enables the introduction of many positive messages. In a lot of ways this is an inspiring guide book on how to deal with some of those awkward teenage moments.
Alongside the positive messages there is a focus on the climate emergency and a reminder that it is everyone’s responsibility to act now.
