More by Springman, I. C.: Fair Paperback (2019)

A mouse teaches its magpie friend that more doesn’t mean better in this picture book from best-selling duo Springman and Lies.

“This is a timely, clearly needed fable for contemporary society as it tries to unravel itself from excessive materialism. Ideal for discussions about reducing consumption.” —School Library Journal, starred review

This innovative and spare picture book asks the question: When is more more than enough?

Can a team of well-intentioned mice save their magpie friend from hoarding too much stuff? With breathtaking illustrations from the New York Times best-selling Brian Lies, this book about conservation wraps an important message in a beautiful package.
