Quiet Please Owen McPhee!

<b>From the author-illustrator team who brought you <i>The Invisible Boy</i> comes the story of a boy who won't stop talking--until he gets laryngitis. You don't have to be a chatterbox to appreciate this tale of listening and learning.</b> <p/>Owen McPhee doesn't just like to talk he LOVES to talk. He spends every waking minute chattering away at his teachers his classmates his parents his dog and even <i>himself.</i> But all that talking can get in the way of listening. And when Owen wakes up with a bad case of laryngitis it gives him a much-needed opportunity to hear what others have to say. <p/>From the author-illustrator team behind <i>The Invisible Boy</i> comes a bright and lively picture book that captures the social dynamics of a busy classroom while delivering a gentle message about the importance of listening.
