More or less

Hughes, Alison, 1966- author.

What if less could be more? A child’s bedroom, and the rest of his house, has become cluttered with stuff. But when one small act of giving something away sparks joy, he keeps going — and before you know it, his little sister, friends, and family get involved in donating items to people in need and bringing the whole community together for a swap party.
