APPEALS TO: SEVERAL 

A little girl mentions all the different ways she is quiet. Quiet like the stars, stones, snails, the moon and even mud. 

I love that this book celebrates the concept of being an introvert. Not all children like to be loud and adventurous. It also shows the reader how to sit and see and observe the world around them. The illustrations are beautiful, and full of movement. The little girl is white.
