The House with Nobody in It : From the bestselling Jon Klassen comes a house-shaped, peep-through board book with a touch of spooky suspense!

From the bestselling Jon Klassen comes a house-shaped, peep-through board book for young readers with a thrill for things that go bump in the night – while feeling safely tucked into their own house, with plenty of somebodies around.

Here are all the things in this house: a chair, a clock on the wall, a stool, a lamp. What’s missing from this house? Somebody. This is the house with nobody in it. Well, there might be some thing...

Designed as an oversize board book, this story takes young ones through a recognisable, cosy house, while die cuts introduce just a hint of precarity. This is the house with nobody in it — or is it?

This is classic Klassen, revealing a bit of mystery before bringing us back into the familiar ... shifty eyes and all.
