Loud Book! by Deborah Underwood

As various creatures go throughout their day, small moments of loud (all a little different than the last) are explored.

A companion to The Quiet Book, this is maybe not the best choice for bedtime. Instead use it at storytime!

Storytime:
Opposites

Lovely as a writing prompt with little ones. There are different kinds of loud (just like there are different kinds of quiet that Underwood shared in "The Quiet Book") - from fireworks loud to candy wrapper in the movie theater loud.

Used it in a storytime. Not as well received as I thought it would be. Oh well you live you learn.

There are lots of kind of "loud" from "dropping your lunch tray loud" to "snoring sister loud." would be fun to talk about which are the actual loudest in volume vs. loudest in feeling (like embarrassment!)

Great book to use with the original Quiet book to compare and contrast and spark a discussion about times we should be quiet or loud.

Just like The Quiet Book, though simple, The Loud Book could start some discussions and jumpstart some stories.
More colorful, loud art than The Quiet Book.

Deborah Underwood stole my idea! :) When I first read The Quiet Book, I thought to myself, "What a great mentor text to use in the classroom. I'll read my students The Quiet Book and then have them write their own Loud Book."

This was such a lovely companion to The Quiet Book. Renata Liwska is probably my favorite children's book illustrator. I mean, is it possible to want to cuddle with a porcupine? In Renata Liwska's world it is!
