    Whether you read it quietly or loudly, learning about opposites has never been more fun - or funny - than with this winning board book.

    Sniffles are quiet, but sneezes are loud. Amiably illustrated in a bright, graphic style, Leslie Patricelli’s spirited board book, QUIET LOUD, stars an obliging, bald, and very expressive toddler who acts out each pair of opposites with comically dramatic effect.
    Clever pairings, bold graphic art and an expressive toddler in diapers make the concepts fun.
    —Publishers Weekly
    Leslie Patricelli is the creator of a series of best-selling board books starring her beloved (almost) bald baby as well as Higher! Higher!; Faster! Faster!; Be Quiet, Mike!; and two stories about the Patterson Puppies. She lives in Ketchum, Idaho.
