Book Launch: Grey is Very Quiet
Advertisement
Join us for the launch of the brand-new book: Grey is Very Quiet.
Written by Kelly Cooper (NB) and illustrated by Jennifer DesRoche (PEI).
PRAISE FOR GREY IS VERY QUIET:
"Author Kelly Cooper and illustrator Jennifer DesRoche have created a delightful and whimsy-filled board book that introduces the very youngest of readers to the world of colours with text that is appropriately simple and flows with a smooth, lilting cadence that lends itself well to being read aloud." - Atlantic Books Today
In Grey is Very Quiet, children are encouraged to experience colour in a multi-sensory, kinesthetic way, with each page introducing a new colour to the story. Silver swims and indigo sings. Magenta swirls and swishes. And beige? In this book, beige is delicious. This whimsical board book is perfect for ages 0-3.
Kelly Cooper is an award-winning author who has received recognition for her children's fiction (If a Horse Had Words (2018) and Midnight and Moon (2022) both won the Alice Kitts Memorial Award for Excellence in Children's Writing) as well as her adult fiction/non-fiction and poetry (The Fiddlehead’s Fiction Prize, the Short Grain Contest, and the Open Season Award from the Malahat Review). This is her first board book.
