Quiet as Mud - Hardcover
by Jane Yolen (Author), Nicole Wong (Illustrator)
A sweet poem about being an introvert in a big loud world.
The Children's Book Council (CBC) - K-2nd grade CHILDREN'S favorite
Inspired by a quote from the late, great children's book author Margaret Wise Brown, this poem honors and celebrates the beauty of being your authentic self. Soothing rhymes and soft illustrations convey the peace of being alone with your thoughts.
This is a gentle introduction to the concept of being an introvert, as well as an invitation for child and grown-up readers alike to observe and imagine their inner world and the world around them. What can you hear when you stay quiet as mud?
