In the six short stories collected in Thinking Out Loud, Karen N.
Drake provides a glimpse at the inner workings of the mind. With
vivid imagery, humor, and a remarkable understanding of the inner
voice, Drake introduces readers to the private thoughts of an Asian
grandmother, a teenage runaway, a worried military mom, a vengeful
peeping tom, and even an inanimate object-- a stop sign. Honest,
inventive and insightful, Drake's writing creates a lush and
intimate vision of characters familiar and relevant to all.
Karen Drake's Please Be Quiet humorously examines the most negative
aspect of apartment life -- noisy neighbors. In this children's
story, Herman is plagued each night by neighbors who sing, dance,
cry and bark. Despite Herman's polite requests for quiet, the
disturbances persist until Herman gives his neighbors a taste of
their own medicine. This book teaches compromise and respect for
mutual space. The simple vocabulary and sentence structure
emphasizes directions and sound words. An added touch is the vivid
illustrations by Aaron C. Jones.
