But it's hard to make human friends when they're so darn delicious! That is, until Penelope gets a taste of her own medicine and finds she may not be at the top of the food chain after all. . . .Readers will gobble up this hilarious new story from award-winning author-illustrator Ryan T. Higgins. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> Higgins ("Mother Bruce") knows how to make big, scary animals seem vulnerable, lovable and funny, adding a strategic touch of gross-out when our heroine spits her victims back up.--<i><b>New York Times Book Reviews</b></i> </br></br><b>PRAISE FOR BE QUIET!</b> <p/>--<i><b>Junior Library Guild Selection</b></i> </br></br><b>PRAISE FOR BE QUIET!</b> <p/>--<i><b>Kids Indie Next List</b></i> </br></br>[T]he bright colors and deceptively adorable dinosaurs make this a fun read rather than a scary one, with a hidden lesson about boundaries. Too much fun for a single read.--<i><b>Booklist</b></i> </br></br>For the times when students struggle to understand one another and when impulse control needs a little strengthening, pair this winner with Mo Willems's Edwina, the Dinosaur Who Didn't Know She Was Extinct. An appealing read-aloud selection.--<i><b>SLJ</b></i> </br></br>Higgins once again delivers sassy dialogue, flawless comic pacing, and faith in the ability of children to learn and grow.--<i><b>Publishers Weekly (starred review)</b></i> </br></br>Higgins' illustrations combine scanned textures, graphite, ink, and Photoshop elements, and they feature a wonderfully diverse class that includes a girl in hijab, a tyke in glasses, and a boy wearing a kippah amid classmates of varying skin and hair colors and body types. Fans of macabre, tongue-in-cheek humor (and twist endings!) will enjoy time spent with Penelope.--<i><b>Kirkus Reviews (starred review)</b></i> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> <b>Ryan T. Higgins</b> (ryanthiggins.com) is the author and illustrator of the <i>New York Times </i>best-selling <i>Mother Bruce</i>, which received the E. B.
