I Don't Want to Be Quiet!

Description

From the excellent Laura Ellen Anderson, this is a very funny picture book about taking notice of the quieter things in life. Stairs are for STOMPING, spoons are for DRUMMING, and when my mum's working, I help her by HUMMING. Making noise is a LOT of fun ... but what happens when you take the time to really listen to your world around you? Perfect for little people who love banging and popping, and whizzing and fizzing. Laura Ellen Anderson is the author/illustrator of the internationally successful I Don't Want Curly Hair and the bestselling Amelia Fang series.

Laura Ellen Anderson is the illustrator of many children's books, including the Amelia Fang series, as well as the illustrator of Bloomsbury's very own Witch Wars fiction series, which has sold over 80,000 copies to date. Laura has also worked for Scholastic, Penguin Random House and Orchard Books. I Don't Want Curly Hair and I Don't Want to be Small (both Bloomsbury) were her first two author-illustrator picture books. Laura lives and works in London.

A thought-provoking message delivered through an enormously enjoyable rhyming narrative and splendid brimming-over-with-energy illustrations; and it's great for whole-hearted performance too * Red Reading Hub * Perfect for lively read-alouds, especially during times of homebound play when children just need to shout! * Kirkus Reviews *
