This Is My Home, This Is My School by Jonathan Bean*

Mr. Bean welcomes his readers to spend a day with a home school family-his family!
The story takes place in the house that his parents (and he and his sisters) built.
Mr. Bean shares the realistic side to home schooling.  The illustrations, of course, offer even more insight into their typical day (or is there ever a typical day in home schooling??!!).
The end of the book includes a two page spread of photographs of Mr. Bean and his sisters.
Next weekend I am planning to go to his book signing and possibly visit the home where this story takes place!!
Pair this book with: Building Our House (his previous book about his family).
Strategies: inferring, connections, synthesizing 
*Highly recommend.
