About this listen

Two-time Caldecott Medalist Sophie Blackall invites listeners to peek through windows that shine like real glass on this lavish book’s cover, and explore the dollhouse-like world of a beloved farmhouse where twelve children were born and raised.

Over a hill, at the end of a road, by a glittering stream that twists and turns stands a farmhouse.

Step inside the dollhouse-like interior of Farmhouse and relish in the daily life of the family that lives there, rendered in impeccable, thrilling detail. Based on a real family and an actual farmhouse where Sophie salvaged facts and artifacts for the making of this spectacular work, Farmhouse bursts with luminous detail and joy. Join the award-winning, best-selling Sophie Blackall as she takes listeners on an enchanting visit to a farmhouse across time, to a place that echoes with stories.
