So much fun to read

I love reading this book to my 8 month old. I read the silencio parts quietly and the ruido parts louder and my daughter thinks it's hilarious. Such a fun book and nice way to learn some Spanish words.
Perfect for teaching toddlers the concept of volume (sound)
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
The illustrations in this board book are perfect for the descriptive short phrases. Our 2-year old toddler requests this book before his naptime ('silencio') and both whispers and shouts where appropriate as I am reading. He mastered the concept of volume in sound as a result of this book, and it's really cute to see him put his finger to his lip to whisper 'shh' when he sees the 'silencio' pages. I highly recommend this book.
a classic in the making

Leslie Patricelli's bold illustrations seem to jump off the page, while the cartoon stylings keep it light. Quiet Loud is my favorite in a series of books that joyfully illustrates concepts. I appreciate that the author enjoys the richness of each of the opposite pairs by focusing each book on one concept. Quiet Loud is my favorite in the series because of the cover baby. Plus, it offers some guidance about appropriate volume level for an environment without coming off as preachy. Quiet Loud is about the pleasure of the sound spectrum, and I gifted this to my infant nephew with hopes of spirited read alouds as he gets older.
Great Book!

My 15-month old daughter loves this book! I find myself reading it to her a few times a day; she never grows tired of it. The book holds her attention the entire time while I'm reading it to her. The pictures are colorful and eye-catching. I checked it out from the Library to see if she would like it, I guess now I need to purchase it and add it to our home library. I would defiantly suggest this book to read to infants and toddlers.
Perfect for my toddler son!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
My son was 15 months when we got these FABULOUS books and he loves them! He tends to be fairly lound himself so learning about what is quiet and what is loud is a good, continual lesson at our house-this book is the perfect tool and the illustrations are fantastic too. Be sure to check out Leslie Patricelli's other two books as well, Yummy/Yucky (our favorite!) and Big/Little-all are well worth the purchase and great for gifts too.
