    A sigh of relief for a tired parent!
  

*by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2012*

The Quiet Book is a triumph, in art and text.My kids (like most kids) have a heckuva time settling down to sleep, so we read them a book (or three) to close out the day and get them ready to sleep. Deborah Underwood's The Quiet Book has become a tradition in our household, for those nights when Curious George isn't getting them in a restful mood.I love the very quiet mood of the book... the illustrations are gentle, muted colors, but with little details that keep kids engaged, searching the illustrations for their favorite parts. When we read this book, I have enacted a 'whispers-only' rule, so the kids think it's exciting, like we're sharing a secret. Liwska's animal characters vividly (but quietly) show a lot of emotion, and I think that's what my kids respond to ("look, the porcupine is saaaaad...").Then there's the text. The illustrations are great, but I think you need to give a lot of credit to Underwood's text in this case... she takes the concept of rhyming and a concrete plotline, and throws it right out the window. It's NOT true that text has to rhyme to engage a child, and it's NOT true that kids can't deal in abstractions. Kudos to Deborah Underwood for giving our kids credit for being smarter than a lot authors give them credit for. That said, the book does have a plotline... But like the book, it's quiet and muted.The ultimate test of any kids book, of course, is if KIDS actually like it. My kids love it so much that they bring it to me to be read, even when it's not bedtime. They also asked me to bring it to their school when we had a 'parents read' day.So I give The Quiet Book five stars, each of which is well-earned, in my opinion.

    Thought Provoking
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2011*

I bought this book for my 3 year-old granddaughter based on the reviews and suggested age levels.  When the dust had settled after Christmas morning, I leafed through the book and was astounded to see I could use it with all my grandchildren ages 7 through 16.  In the afternoon, we all sat down, went through each page's scenario, and talked through the emotions that the different characters could be feeling that would cause them to be "quiet".  All 6 had thoughts and shared; the 16 and 13 year-olds obviously had the most input and using all the pages became somewhat tedious for them, but, overall, the time spent doing this activity was a wonderful experience as we all explored all the possibilities.To have a young child sit with this book by themselves seems to me to completely loose one of the most effective uses of the concepts presented.  Being together and exploring why someone would feel quiet when two others are whispering close by is an important teaching tool about people and how to react to it.I would recommend this book to anyone with absolutely no reservations.  It was not only well reasoned in its format but a thought-provoking device to discuss when to -- or not to -- be quiet.

    A children's book that makes you think
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2010*

This is a marvelous children's book.  I have always loved children's literature, so have read a lot of it, from many ages.  Rarely have I come across one done in such a thoughtful manner as this one.  When I finished it the first time, I really stopped to ponder what else in my world am I missing out on, just because I haven't taken the time to stop and think about one idea in different contexts.I enjoyed The Quiet Book so much that I actually bought it and had it sent to my niece's daughter.  Their whole family has enjoyed it very much.It is a delightful book to read anytime, but with it's sweet pictorial style and few words, it will make a great book to alternate with Goodnight, Moon as a bedtime book.It won't be long before your favorite children will be reading it to you!!
