The Great Indoors by Julie Falatko, Ruth Chan

4.0

Childrens picture book. When a human family leaves for the vacation, their woodland animal neighbors take their vacation to "the great indoors." The animals use all the electronics on their vacation and enjoy convenient foods that are cooked hot or very cold. As they progress through the week, their new living arrangement loses its shine and they are all happy to return to the forest, until next year. A fun story that gently criticizes some of the over-indulgent tendencies that humans have. The animal illustrations are very expressive and add a lot to the story.
