Have you ever wondered what your house is made of? It's probably made out of brick, wood, cement, maybe some plaster. But wouldn't it be incredible to live in a house made of earth, wood and straw? Well this house is made of mud. The family in the story lives in a very unique house, it's made of mother earth. It's a beautiful house that's round like the earth, moon and the sun. The most exciting thing about this mud house is its back yard is the desert. The friends that come to visit this family are mostly animals, like mice, birds, and butterflies. Isn't it nice to see people sharing their home with animals? Now if you think about it, I'd be kind of fun living in a house made of mud.
