Annotation:
Different kinds of quiet are beautifully shared here by all sorts of creatures, including bears, mice, wombats, moose, and rabbits. The quiet that happens right before the birthday candles are blown out, when a wish is being made, is one kind of quiet. Another is the comfortable quiet that best friends have sometimes. The many thoughtful kinds of quiet are accompanied by sweet illustrations. Selected by the New York Times Book Review as a 2010 Notable Children's Book.

Praise
"The soft, matte feel of the illustrations, created with pencil, are digitally enhanced, and are priceless."
03/01/2010
"Liwska colors her finely hatched pencil drawings with low-value, low-intensity hues, matching the theme of low aural volume with a muted but detailed visual quality that invites a close look. Soothing and layered.
