"The Place Where You Live / El lugar donde vives" is a book by James Luna which introduces children to their neighborhood and the community comprising it. There are beautiful, lively, and realistic illustrations of children's neighbors and family. It includes bilingual rhyming text, pages always ending with the repetition "in the place where you live". I found the language simple and clear for my younger ones, though the recommended age range for the book is for 3-6 years old. As listed in the inside flap, the first pages read "This is the place where you live. / This is the kitchen, warm and sunny, / with tortillas, hot chocolate and everything yummy, / here in the place where you live."- it's a very inviting read for all things good and cozy reminding us that "there's no place like home".
