SHHHHH.....BANG

A Whispering Book

by Margaret Wise Brown

Pub Date: June 15th, 1943

Not as successful as her Noisy Books, this whispering book will appeal nevertheless to children who like utter nonsense. The story concerns a very quiet town and a very noisy boy and what happens when they come together. To be effective at all it has to be dramatized as you read it aloud to the nursery age. The large shadowy pictures have a good deal of humor and action despite their sombre tone.
