The Little House Within a House – Ode to Virginia Lee Burton
$150
The fable of the “little house” has stuck with me since I was a child. For those who don’t know a little house gets swallowed up by urban sprawl, and eventually gets moved out to the county. It speaks to slow, deliberate and simple living.
