“Let’s play house-house!” say Sunehri and her friends as they gather discarded items—old utensils, chip packets, bottles, even a broken helmet—to build a home of their own. Living and working on the city streets, their pretend play reflects both creativity and a deep longing for what they've never had: a real home.

With joyful, detailed illustrations that capture the vibrancy of childhood, this powerful story beautifully balances imagination with reality, offering a glimpse into the lives of street children and their dreams.
