Join Idris Goodwin & Lorraine Nam to discuss their book "Your House Is Not Just a House."

Meet the creators of this year's Imagination Celebration book!

From breakbeat poet and playwright Idris Goodwin and celebrated artist Lorraine Nam comes a whimsical, irresistible rhyming read-aloud empowering kids to embrace their imagination. Perfect for fans of The Year We Learned to Fly and Boxitects.

It seems your home is just

walls, windows, and doors,

but take a closer look—

it's that and so much more!

One rainy day, a kid opens their closet to discover a teleportation chamber. In the adventure of make-believe that follows, we are invited to see our homes as more than places to live—they are vessels for creativity and joy.
