The House That Floated

Guojing, illustrated by Guojing

In this wordless story, a family lives in a small red house on a cliff above the sea. They fish, watch dolphins, and spend time outdoors together, but rising sea levels gradually bring water to their doorstep. When they must leave, the family gathers wood to build a large raft and tows their house across the water. After traveling overnight, they find another cliff, a lighthouse, and people nearby.
