How could we possibly resist a book that not only takes us on a whistle-stop tour of the world, and the amazing places people live in - but also introduces us to their pets.
Here's "Home Sweet Home" by Mia Cassany and Paula Blumen.
It's a winning combination as we see the world through the eyes of people's pets, and of course the insides of their houses and homes right across the world, ranging from Brownstones in Brooklyn, New York to the cosiest and most adorable looking cabins in Reykjavik, Iceland.
Each page spread feels like a little story in its own right as the pets narrate and tell us all about their homes.

A truly lovely book, particularly if kids love movies like "The Secret Life of Pets" or just love finding out a little bit more about where people live all around the world.
