| PreSchool-Grade 1—An artful introduction to nature, stillness, and the power of observation. A wide-eyed boy enters a garden replete with fluttering butterflies, birds, and blooming trees, all rich with color. "I sit quietly. If I am very still, I see more." He also hears sounds: "chirp, squeak, crunch." A robin eats red berries from a bush, a turtle munches moss, a lizard snaps up a moth, and so on. Animals small and large question motives as each one finds its meal: "The frog hopped up and caught a gnat. Why did you do that? asked a fish. I was hungry, said the frog, and I didn't want to eat you." Learning by observing and listening to the creatures in turn, the boy finally gathers a meal of apples, berries, carrots, and more for a picnic with his friends-the myriad creatures. With spare words and a balance of line and color against white backgrounds framed with lacey branches, Aliki deftly portrays the benefits of observing nature. Back matter tells how to grow a "quiet" garden. This book is perfect for reading aloud: "The squirrel crunched on an acorn. Why did you do that? asked the spider. Ah-wa-wan-gwy, said the squirrel, crunching away."—Marian Creamer, Children's Literature Alive, Portland, OR |

| "Quiet in the Garden" is one of those soothing reads that lulls both parent and child into a quiet state of reflection. The story centers around a little boy who likes going out into the garden and observing the nature around him. The illustrations by author Aliki are gorgeous, awash in vivid colors, and portraying the garden in all its resplendent glory - there's even a little lesson on what the different animals and insects eat tucked into each picture.The last page contains some handy tips for little ones interested in cultivating their own 'quiet' garden. Recommended for preschoolers-2nd grade. |
