I liked this book until they started talking about sin and God. Arlo has drawn on his wall with a marker. He tries to hide it but his mom still finds out. He does get punished, and I do like that the punishment was no “screen time”. It makes it feel modern and relevant to our times. The story

should have ended with Arlo’s mom helping to clean things up. Instead it goes into a lecture on sin and trying to hide our sin from god. NO THANK YOU. On a side note, the characters in this book are Black, but the author is not. The race of the illustrator is unknown.
