This is a fun rhyming book about a neighborhood of kids moving from house to house using different modes of transportation. They climb, zip-line, parachute, and even cannon-ball blast themselves to the house next door and pick up two more friends at each stop. The illustrations are as entertaining and light as the text and the book reminds me a lot of my own neighborhood, where it wouldn’t seem out of place at all to see all the kids tightrope walking between all of our houses. The page of the kids happily surrounded by boxes is priceless. Great read aloud book, especially for active tinkerers.
