I Dream of Home Written by Grace Hickey, a ten year old Genworth Meaning of Home contest finalist, this book describes everything that Grace's home in Charlottetown, PEI means to her. Grace was compelled to enter the contest, being deeply moved by the fact that not everyone has a safe and decent place to live. When she found out that Habitat for Humanity is working towards their vision of a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live, she became a supporter of the cause and entered the Meaning of Home contest. "It's just wonderful that people who are less fortunate get homes to share memories with their families, so they'll always feel safe and loved,” said Grace during a radio interview. Grace's poem is accompanied by Stephen Farquharson's inspired illustrations, making this book enjoyable for children of all ages. Please purchase this book for $10 and support Habitat for Humanity's homebuilding efforts in Canada. All proceeds go to Habitat for Humanity Prince Edward Island Inc. |
Too many families must struggle to get by without a safe, decent and affordable place to live. Join us in our mission to eradicate this crisis.
