The Very Quiet Cricket is now available as a coloring book! Perfect for both reading and coloring, this interactive version of Eric Carle’s classic story follows a lonely cricket who’s looking for love. As all the different insects go by, he tries and tries to make a chirp, but it isn’t until he sees another cricket that he can truly sing.
Special artwork made just for coloring and blank pages at the end for your own drawings give this classic story new life. A sure-fire hit for creative children everywhere.
Born in the United States, Eric Carle was taken as a six-year-old child by his parents back to their native country, Germany. Later, he studied at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste (Academy of Applied Arts) in Stuttgart, and returned to New York in his early twenties as a graphic designer and artist. His many picture books are now known and loved by children around the world.
In 2002, Eric and his late wife, Barbara, opened The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art, in Amherst, Massachusetts, where the works of distinguished picture book artists, nationally and internationally acclaimed, are exhibited in three spacious galleries.
