In the power of imagination and the pages of books, she sees possibilities for herself and discovers a place where her words ring loud and true. <p>David Ouimet's exquisite debut translates the interior world of an anxious child into intricate paintings that convey how it feels to be lonely, isolated, and scrutinized--and how it feels to break free and soar. <em>I Go Quiet</em> will resonate with anyone who has struggled to find their voice.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A powerful book, about the intensity that can live behind silence; about the power of books and how they give us strength and knowledge to deal with the world in which we find ourselves. A wonder.--Matt Haig<br><br>A thought-provoking tale that is both tantalizing and timeless, where disquiet is dispelled through hope and sprouting confidence-- "Booklist (starred review)"<br><br>Astonishingly beautiful...
