So off they go in search of a new place to live. Sam knows research is key, so he finds books about architectural styles to get ideas for building a temporary home from objects found around the library. They build and live in a variety of houses: a castle, an igloo, a yurt, a modern house, and even a geodesic dome. But none feels like home to Sam. Finally, though, the renovation of the library is complete, and they can move back to their true home, the library!\u003cbr\u003e The book includes photos of the real house styles discussed in the text and a relevant glossary of architectural terms. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eLibrary Mouse: Home Sweet Home\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Kirk's familiar gouache illustrations maintain a mouse perspective filled with library details.
