100 Rooms

Bright contrasting colors and funky patterns enliven this whimsical picture book that teaches the lesson “less is more.” A man sets out to build a house; he instructs the builder to add room after room until he has 100 rooms. He has a room for forks, curtains, tables, even a room for a single plant, but he begins to lose track of which room is which. Even with all his possessions, however, he realizes he’s missing the one thing he truly needs: connection.
