Why are you so quiet? / story by Jaclyn Desforges ; art by Risa Hugo. by Desforges, Jaclyn, 1988- Annick Press, c2020. Call #: FICTION DES Subjects Introversion -- Juvenile fiction.   Listening -- Juvenile fiction.   Senses and sensation -- Juvenile fiction.   Self-esteem -- Juvenile fiction. ISBN:  9781773214344 1773214349 Description:  1 volume (unpaged) : color illustrations ; 24 cm. Summary:  Into a world where it often seems nobody is listening comes a poignant story that celebrates the power of silence. "Why are you so quiet?" Her teacher implores it, her classmates shout it, even her mom wonders it. Everyone, it seems, is concerned for Myra Louise. So, in search of an answer to the tiresome question nobody will stop asking, she invents a listening machine. If the raindrops, or the crickets, or the dryers at the laundromat can tell her why they're so quiet, maybe Myra Louise can finally make everybody understand. But the more she listens, the less interested she becomes in finding any answer at all. Because Myra Louise comes to realize that all she really needs is someone else to listen alongside her. With gorgeous illustrations from Risa Hugo, Jaclyn Desforges's first picture book champions introversion and the value of being a listener, a thinker, and an observer in our increasingly loud world.
