To set the mood, Klassen relies heavily on color; the first few rooms are brightly lit in the sun’s rays, but the home grows dimmer as readers proceed. Treating the book itself as a physical location begging to be explored (it’s even shaped like a house), Klassen extends the format beyond its usual limitations, allowing a short story of surprising depth to emerge. A spooky house tour, unafraid to redefine what board books are capable of achieving.—\u003cem\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/em\u003e (starred review)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKlassen’s (Your Truck, rev. 1\/26) house-shaped novelty board book is a slightly spooky, ­fun-to-explore existential journey that challenges our notions of what board books can offer. . . .
