The Quiet Book (Hardcover)

By Deborah Underwood, Renata Liwska (Illustrator)
$12.95
ISBN-13: 9780547215679
Availability: Usually Ships in 1-5 days
Published: Houghton Mifflin Books for Children, 04/12/2010
There are many kinds of quiet:
Quiet can be delicate.
Quiet can be thundering!
Quiet can be sweet,
and cozy,
and can most definitely help you fall asleep.

With kid-centric descriptions and irresistible artwork, this gentle picture book explores all the different quiets that can fill a child’s days from morning to night.

Why we love it~ Beautiful use of language, an amazing collection of instances of quiet - a seemingly simple book that gives you much to think about -  with perfect illustrations to match!

Ages 5 & up. Also a great writing prompt for older children (& adults!).
