The Rules of the House {Review & #Giveaway}

April 25, 2016 by Dawn

RulesoftheHouse

5M4B disclosure

Siblings may not always see things the same way, but when the going gets tough, they often have to put those differences aside and come together. In Mac Barnett’s new picture book The Rules of the House, Ian and Jenny face this very scenario. Ian lives a very orderly life and knows that rules are meant to be followed, while Jenny scoffs at rules more often than not. But what happens when one rule-following brother and one rule-breaking sister vacation in a special house with its own set of very specific rules?

Check out my full review at 5 Minutes for Mom, and be sure to enter to win a special Rules of the House prize pack!
