There's No Place Like My Newfoundland and Labrador Home by Necie Mouland

In There's No Place Like My Newfoundland and Labrador Home, written and illustrated by Necie Mouland, each double page spread features an illustration and rhyming text.  Every page gives reasons for why living in Newfoundland and Labrador is great!  What Newfoundlander wouldn't want to share such a book with children they love? In the back of the book there is a section about plants and sea creatures common in Newfoundland and also a glossary of some words used in the book.

This is the second book by Necie that Anna and I have read and enjoyed, the first being Salt Fish and Scrunchions.  You can check out some sample pages of There's No Place Like My Newfoundland and Labrador Home on Necie's website.  This is a great book for Newfoundlanders living at home to share with a child to help them realize the wonderful privilege they have living where they do.  It's also great for those Newfoundlanders that are living away to share with a child and tell them about the place they used to call home.  The book would also be a good resource for anyone to use in a study of Newfoundland and Labrador.
