Julia's housemates have to do their chores—even if they're fairies, goblins, mermaids, and dragons!

When Julia and her walking house come to town, she likes everything about her new neighborhood except how quiet it is! So Julia puts a sign up: "Julia's House for Lost Creatures." Soon she's hosting goblins, mermaids, fairies, and even a dragon. Quiet isn't a problem anymore for Julia . . . but getting her housemates to behave themselves is!

 

The simple, sweet text of this picture book by Zita the Spacegirl author/illustrator Ben Hatke is perfectly balanced by his lush, detailed, immersive watercolor illustrations.
