5.0 out of 5 stars Precious memories, April 9, 2002

This little book is an important part of my childhood. I'm now 14, and The Little Quiet Book has been my favorite book for as long as I can remember. I loved the pictures, especially the quiet puppy. I was recently cleaning my closet, and I found The Little Quiet Book in a box... I almost cried, I was so happy to see it. I definately recommend this book to mothers who enjoy reading to their children... I know I loved it when my mom would read it to me, and I'm sure your children will too.

When my first child was born in 1998 we were given a copy of this book. We loved it and read the book until it fell apart. That edition I would happily give five stars to. I recently purchased a new copy for my youngest children and was disappointed to find several of the lines were removed, including the ending "quiet are you when you close this book, hush" which my daughter loved to whisper along with me. Because of the editing, I have to rate this edition at only 3 stars. Good, but not like the original.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book for bedtime!, June 27, 1998

My daughter is now 21 months old and this book has been one of her favorites for over a year. The illustrations are sweetly drawn and focus on things that are easily recognizeable to most children. The text is soothing and rhythmic. I plan to tuck this little book in with all future baby gifts!
