Merrigold's Very Best Home

Merrigold visits several animals and soon realizes their homes aren't right for her at all. A wise piglet tells her to go home to her own house where she finds she already has the very best home and the very best parents in all the world.~~~~~Meant to help parents and grandparents cultivate contentment in the children they love, this story is a 'the grass is not always greener' (or 'the house is not always better') story with an ending reminiscent of the prodigal son. Parents and grandparents will have opportunity to talk about themes such as being grateful, unconditional love, and forgiveness in terms the child can understand.
