Overview: This truthful story supplied by beautiful illustrations, shows and teaches its audience about including people. Lachie McLachlan tells the people who pass by that there is always room for one more. But will there truly be room for everyone that passes by?

Activity: Have children draw the house from the story with all the people crammed inside. Do this trying to imitate the imaginative sketch and watercolor from the pictures in the story.
