Overview of Home Again

It's summer at the Heartwood Hotel, and everyone is in a flurry getting ready for Ms. Prickles's wedding to Mr. Quillson! Meanwhile, a new mouse guest named Strawberry comes to stay. She's sweet and soft-spoken like Mona, and gifted in the kitchen just as Mona's mother was-could Strawberry be a long-lost relative? But when lightning strikes part of Fernwood Forest and starts a fire, all thoughts go to the guests and staff hurrying to leave to make sure their homes and families are safe. Mona works to protect the Heartwood from harm, but as the fire rages on, it's becoming dangerous to stay. Can Mona and her friends save their home before it's too late?

About Bookish Nature Adventures

Bookish Nature Adventures is a gentle nature study inspired by the Charlotte Mason philosophy—designed to help your family slow down, connect with each other, and engage with the world around you. This summer edition is based on Home Again by Kallie George, a delightfully illustrated novel set in the cozy world of the Heartwood Hotel. Each week, you’ll join Moana and her forest friends on meaningful adventures—then step into your own through four days of seasonal readings and nature-inspired activities.

You’ll explore winter through poetry, art, living books, nature journaling, podcasts and videos, hands-on science experiments, and simple outdoor adventures. Open this guide and discover how beautiful learning can be—together.
