Pearl learns about the different types of homes and habitats in which her woodland friends live and play. Diversity is explored and championed in this tale of self-appreciation. Home is where the heart is. The popular Solomon Raven series (Cinnamon and the April Shower, Mason Moves Away, Lewis Cardinal's First Winter, A Home for Pearl Squirrel) features seasonal stories with recurring north woods animal friends. The woodland settings offer insight into the changes of the forest landscape, and each story involves a subject that affects children on a day–to–day basis. No matter what the issue, Solomon Raven, the wisest bird in the forest, has the answer. Reading Level: Grade K-3
