The Blue House

Phoebe Wahl

Leo and his father cherish their old blue house, despite its mossy roof, leaks, peeling paint, and unreliable heater. They make it home through everyday rituals such as baking pies, building blanket forts, and dancing in the living room. When their landlord sells the house to developers, they must move. Leo feels angry and later joins his father for a song-and-dance session. In their new house, they begin making a home together again.
