Summary

COMPANION TO: DIVE IN!, ISBN 9781459815865. Placemaking - personalizing public and semi-private spaces like front yards - is a growing trend in cities and suburbs around the world, drawing people out of their homes and into conversation with one another. From Dutch families who drag couches and tables onto sidewalks for outdoor suppers to Canadians who build little lending libraries to share books with neighbours, people can do things that make life more fun and strengthen neighbourhoods. 'Home Sweet Neighborhood' combines upbeat text, fun facts and colourful photos to intrigue and inspire readers. Michelle Mulder lives in Vancouver, BC. Ages 9 to 12
