by Rebecca Flansburg, Ba Norrgard and Penny Weber

"Sissy Goes Tiny is the story of a little girl and her family who make the lifestyle choice to live tiny and Do More with Less.

She loves her toys, her Big house, and her Big backyard. But when her parents decide they are going to "live Tiny," the thought of parting with some of her belongings and living in a Little house on wheels doesn't sound so good.
