<p>The little girl in this story lives with her family in a trailer in northeastern Saskatchewan, where her father is building a dam. She knows everything about the place she lives -- her road, her school, the forest where she plays hide-and-seek and where the wolf howls at night, the hill where she goes tobogganing in winter . . . </p>

<p>But the dam is nearly finished and when summer comes the family is moving to Toronto -- a place marked by a big red star on the map at school. Have people in Toronto seen what I've seen? the little girl asks. And with her teacher's help she finds a way to keep everything she loves about home.</p>

<p>This simple, beautifully written story, complemented by Matt James's vibrant, imaginative illustrations, will resonate deeply with anyone who has had to leave their home for a new place.</p><p><strong>Correlates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts:</strong></p><p>CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.7<br />Use illustrations and details in a story to describe its characters, setting, or events.</p>
