NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A lyrical ode to all the secret spaces in our world, this gorgeous picture book inspires imagination, creativity, and wonder.

The world is filled with forts.
Tiny worlds within this world,
safe as coat pockets.

Everyone needs a room of their own. A place to hide and play, ponder and dream. Whether it's a tree house in the backyard or a blanket fort inside, a fort is a magical place filled with imagination and wonder.

Debut author Katie Venit and celebrated illustrator Kenard Pak have crafted a lyrical celebration of the secret spaces we hold so dear. Forts encourages readers to explore the world around them to find the perfect place where they belong--no matter how big or small.
