Reviews"House's roof is blown off in a storm, but help arrives in many forms. . . Centering a house instead of a human as the main character provides a bit of distance and humor to a potentially scary topic . . . Hats off!" -- Kirkus Reviews "By having a personified house lose its hat rather than its roof, this scary situation becomes more humorous . . . The house's sassy reactions and eventual optimism could be comforting for children who are afraid of storms or whose homes have experienced damage." - Booklist "On a blustery day, House's hat (or roof) blows right off, making House feel very, very exposed. . . Santiago's tender and funny images, digitally drawn but reminiscent of chalk pastels, deftly give personality to House and everyone around him, and . . . visual humor abounds. . . House's feelings are clear as a cloudless sky, its face (made of two window eyes and a front door mouth) conveying everything from sadness to gratitude. While the diverse group of human characters do their part to help House out, this is his story, and he's a charming star. Think of this as a sillier grandchild of Virginia Lee Burton's The Little House, with which it would pair perfectly for storytime." -- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, "House's roof is blown off in a storm, but help arrives in many forms. . . Centering a house instead of a human as the main character provides a bit of distance and humor to a potentially scary topic . . . Hats off!" -- Kirkus Reviews

But just in time, more neighbors come to pitch in. And they have a plan for a new hat that fits him perfectly.
