Old Blue Is My Home: A Picture Book
Lita Judge
A girl and her family make their home in an old blue van, which gives them shelter, a place to sleep, and a way to be together. They cook outside and sleep beneath the stars, yet the girl sometimes feels unmoored and different at school. As those feelings grow, her mother reminds her that the van contains their family’s love. The watercolor-and-pencil picture book explores home, belonging, and life amid housing insecurity.
