THE CHILDREN'S BOOK REVIEW Everything is quiet and peaceful, until ...the sounds of the night begin! With every turn of the page, adventurous preschoolers will be delighted by the surprising sounds of many nighttime forest animals. Award-winning author Lindsey Craig's new book OH SO QUIET! begs to be read aloud with animated voices. The use of a sound and then a turn of the page create the right balance of suspense and comfort/relief for little ones. Combined with the endearing indigo litillustrations, readers are charmed rather than alarmed when the bear settles intothe tent for a good night's rest as the boys sleep soundly in their bedroom withDaddy--the tent visible from the bedroom window and the bedroom windowvisible from the tent.Oh So Quiet is recommended as a read-aloud campfire book--and would be even better when read post-marshmallow roasting.
