Quiet LOUD

Synopsis:Bedtime is quiet. screaming is LOUD. See what else is quiet and LOUD!

Review: This is a nice little board book for small hands which introduces the important concept of dynamics - or quiet and LOUD! The pictures are simple and add clarity to the ideas illustrated, such as snnezing and screaming. There are some interesting noises to talk about and even try and replicate ( BANG CRASH, CLICK CLACK etc.) The only things I might take exception to are Mummy's shoes being loud - some of us mummies wear trainers rather than shoes that go 'click clack' - and birds that are quiet - obviously the author doesn't have a crow in his garden!
