Reading tips:<\/span><\/strong>
\n1.\u00c2\u00a0Quiet!<\/em> tells the story of a mama and papa lion who don’t want any of the jungle animals to wake their cub from his morning nap. Papa Lion struggles to keep everyone quiet until his own stomach growling finally wakes his son.<\/p>\n

2.\u00c2\u00a0As you read the book with your child, ask him to predict what will happen next\u00c2\u00a0\u00e2\u20ac\u201d will more noisy animals come along? What will Papa Lion do? What does he think might happen at the end of the story?<\/p>\n

3.\u00c2\u00a0Together, brainstorm other ways Papa Lion might have kept his son from being woken up.<\/p>\n

To extend the reading:<\/span><\/strong>
\n1.\u00c2\u00a0Invite your child to create a Quiet! sign of his own. He can put this on his door when he needs some quiet time, or hang it on the door of a sleeping younger sibling or an older one doing homework.<\/p>\n

2.\u00c2\u00a0Cut a piece of posterboard or cardboard approximately 10 inches by 8 inches. Punch two holes at the top.<\/p>\n

3.\u00c2\u00a0Invite your child to decorate the sign with markers, glitter, and glue. He can even use collage materials, if available.<\/p>\n

4.\u00c2\u00a0String yarn through the holes and tie the ends together. The sign is now ready for hanging!<\/p>\n

Learning benefits:<\/span><\/strong>
