All of us need a place to rest: a cave, a warren, a pond, a nest. A family of bears wanders the forest while the seasons turn, passing every kind of animal home along the way, and the peek-through hole cut into each spread pulls a child forward to see who lives on the next page.

Britta Teckentrup layers her collage art so the die-cuts genuinely surprise: a bird nest becomes a beaver lodge, an icy river full of fish opens into a maze of rabbit burrows. When the snow finally falls, the bears reach their own cozy cave to sleep the winter through, and the book lands its point as gently as a bedtime should: everyone has a home, and yours is here.

From the bestselling series that began with Tree, this is the calm, beautiful end-of-day book for the child who always asks what lives in there.
