The Quiet Way Home — Bonny Becker

Shh. Listen carefully, can you hear them? Not the sound of rumbling trucks or the clanging cans. But the sounds that small things make. The whirring of a grasshopper, the thrumming of honeybees, the squeaking of a rusty bike.Bonny Becker takes the quiet way home and in language that is rich and evocative, she turns the walk into an adventure.Benrei Huang's bright and gentle depiction of a special route home and a special relationship makes this a warm and reassuring read for nap time, for bedtime, and for any time when quiet, gentle sounds need to be heard.
