Five stars: Andrew Henry's Meadow by Doris Burn (1965) is a picture book about a boy with a drive to build and how he helps the oddball children of his community find a place of their own. The titular character is a boy who will build things anywhere he can, at the annoyance of his family. For example: a helicopter in the kitchen, pulleys in the bedroom, a merry-go-round in the laundry room. Fed up one day he sets out to find his own place.
