A lot, a little, enough or too much are words that tell
us how the value of a quantity changes according
to the context or point of view. Here we follow the
adventures of this magpie as it builds its nest.
A clever story to understand that what is little for
some people is a lot for others.

Author: Barbro Lindgren

Illustrated by: Olof Landstrom
Benito always wanted a brother. Now that he has one,
he’s unhappy because the only thing his baby brother
does is cry. When his mother gives him a pacifier,
Benito says he wants one too. “You’re too old to use
a pacifier,” his mother says, but Benito doesn’t give up
easily.
With illustrations of great expressive force, this
book deals with the arrival of a baby brother with
lots of humor and subtlety.
