Review Quotes:
"This is a true STEAM offering with components devoted to scientific and engineering breakthroughs, creative green architecture and landscaping, kids' definitions of what home means expressed through original poems. Two overarching themes resonate throughout: first, that housing is a universal right, and second, that there is hope."
