Quiet . . .
like a quilt on a feather bed . . .
and frost on the window . . .
we write our names knowing . . .
the sun will melt them off
But the sun is so quiet . . .
that we don't care
we smile
--from "Connie" by Nikki Giovanni
The quiet and noisy, wintery and sometimes sunny poems in "The Sun
Is So Quiet" will always make you smile. Nikki Giovanni describes
riding rainbows, tiptoeing through strawberry patches, licking
chocolaty fingers, snuggling under covers, and many other wonderful
childhood moments. Ashley Bryan's warmest, most colorful
illustrations make each page look like a bright, beaming
smile.
Together, they have created a collection that you can linger over
like a peppermint candy cane or enjoy as quickly as a snowflake
melts on your nose.
