Arco's Little House

“Fogel’s gentle, straightforward story offers a noble message, especially in today’s world, which often values overconsumption over necessity; it’s clear that bigger isn’t always better. Arco’s emotional journey is authentic, and his eventual resolution rings true.”—Kirkus Reviews

“With minimal, concise text and sweet, detailed illustrations in a muted palette that support the story line, this beginning reader gently conveys its you-do-you message without devolving into overt tirades against excess or the treacle of many affirmation-laden peers. Arco knows what he needs to be satisfied, and, for him, bigger definitely isn’t better.”—Booklist
