{"product_id":"the-quiet-book-by-deborah-underwood","title":"The Quiet Book by Deborah Underwood","description":"\u003cp\u003eAll quiet is not created equal. In this irresistibly charming picture book, many different quiet moments are captured, from the anticipation-heavy \"Top of the roller coaster quiet\" to the shocked-into-silence \"First look at your new hairstyle quiet.\" The impossibly sweet bears, rabbits, fish, birds, and iguanas are all rendered in soft pencils and colored digitally, and, as in all of the best picture books, the illustrations propel the story far beyond the words. A sure-to-be-a-classic bedtime favorite.
