Not only is My Place lovely... it's all about MY place...... the area where I live. The chimneys are real (and now set in a lovely park) and the houses sit sit in a little back street. (In fact, I'm about to drive past them in a few minutes.) I can't BELIEVE the prices on Amazon. It is actually still in print, but not easy to find as Pearson Education sell it as an education title. (AUS$19.95)

A book that I wish Kane Miller would reissue in the USA?is My Place by Nadia Wheatley and Donna Rawlins which traces a house lot back through?time to when the land was not owned by anyone at all. The artwork has the look of a child's pictures which make this a great book for history projects in elementary schools. If only I had bought a copy back when it was in print!
