In this creative continuation of the award-winning If I Built series, Jack imagines what his ideal living situation would look like by constructing the house of his dreams. “My house will be nifty! My house will be neat! My house will stand out as the best on the street!” One day, while out in the garden with his mom, Jack decides that his house could use some exciting improvements. Like a racetrack! And a flying playroom! And maybe even a gigantic slide. Jack's limitless creativity and infectious enthusiasm will inspire budding young inventors to imagine their own fantastical designs. Complete with Chris Van Dusen's vibrant, retro illustrations and delightfully rhyming text, this joyful, imaginative read-aloud will make readers feel right at home. Review: Would reccomend, great little book! - Bought to read to a 1st grade class - they stayed engaged and really seemed to enjoy the story. And it had great illustrations too. Worked perfectly for the little STEM activity we planned - read this book and followed up with a tower building challenge using just solo cups. Teachers and kids loved it! Review: Love this authors books! - Always love Chris Van Dusen books, fun easy reads that spark the imagination we have a few and have borrowed others from the library

I read this book to my son every night.
I love this book. This book will be one of the few impressionable things that will make up my son's childhood. I read this to him every night. We have a stack of children's books and I ask him to pick three books in the pile for me to read to him and he always pulls out a combination of three books that includes this book, or even "If I build a school" and "if I built a car." The illustrations are amazing and stoke the imagination and the words rhyme like a dr. seuss book which always keeps the engagement. Dear Author, you could write "if I built a train" or "if I built and airplane" or any other iteration and we would buy them. We already own all of them. Are you listening?

Lo recomiendo sin dudarlo
Perfecto, debería haber más libros como este, a mí hijo de 4 años le cuesta mantener la atención en un libro al completo, este libro lo consiguió. Y un 10 también a las ilustraciones.
