What he gets is the noisiest baby sister you could ever imagine! But when Wren runs away to the country, he discovers that maybe peace and quiet isn't all he needs...</p> With bright, modern illustrations from rising star Sophie Beer (<em>Love Makes a Family </em>and <em>Kindness Makes Us Strong</em>) and a powerfully simple story, any child (and any parent!) who's ever had to deal with a noisy sibling will love <em>Wren.</em></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"A cacophony of chaotic sound brings a new brother and sister together...Yet the heart of the story lies in its sibling love. Wren's eventual relationship with his new baby sister will be a welcome addition to the ranks of such new-baby standouts as One Special Day, by Lola M. Schaefer and illustrated by Jessica Meserve (2012). Sensory overload is no match for the lure of tranquility--until it is, in this effortlessly charming tale."</p>-- "Kirkus Reviews"<br><br><p>"Lehman's story is so sweet and realistic and often funny, and Beer's detailed illustrations provide endless enjoyment for my daughter (3). There's always something fun to look at in the background, and everyone's expressions, including the baby's, are so on point. I love books that are so well illustrated I can see and hear the sound."</p>-- "Baby Librarians"<br><br><p>"Wren is a kid who just wants a little peace and quiet. He lives with his cacophonous family of 4 siblings in the noisy city....The illustrations, "a combination of traditional mark making and digital medium," are full bleed panoramas of the bustling household, in a palette of bright reds, yellow, and blues, with a slightly retro feel. This is a fun story time read and a light hearted book for families expecting another baby."</p>-- "Youth Services Book Review"<br><br><p>Desperate for some quiet, Wren moves in with his grandparents in the country, and while at first, he enjoys the quiet, he misses his family, even his noisy baby sister ... [S]weet and realistic and often funny...Beer's detailed illustrations can provide endless enjoyment for children. There's always something fun to look at in the background, and everyone's expressions, including the baby's, are so on point.</p>-- "Book Riot"<br>
