After the noise of a party or the din of a dog barking, the Silence comes in and soothes a young child so that she can read, think, and be still. - Baker & Taylor
"In this illustrated picture book, a young child learns to find comfort in silence when the world becomes too noisy."-- - Orca Book Publishers
With soft illustrations and soothing text, this is a quiet story about learning to find calm in the busy world around you.
When the party's over and the baby finally falls asleep, when the dog is all barked out and the screens are dark, the Silence pads in on soft, furry feet. A warm, comforting presence, the Silence curls up in a sun-beam like a cuddly cat and helps you read, think and be still. The Silence is friends with the Dark. Together they soothe the jagged edges left when the Noise has rolled on and gently launch the boats of your dreams into the night. When the day becomes overwhelming or other feelings become too big, the Silence slips in.
Available in French as Le Silence se glisse près de toi.
