| | | A little boy recounts all the special places on his family's farm. Eli knows that no matter where the rest of his life takes him, all the places to love are right here, connected to the land. MacLachlan's moving text is paired with stunning full-color illustrations that capture the simple beauty of farm life. Annotation: A boy who lives on a farm with his parents and grandparents relates, in poetic language, the favorite places of each family member. Grandfather prefers the barn, grandmother the mountains, and so on. When a new baby sister is born, the boy anticipates sharing all the spots with her. Color paintings illustrate the text.
