Margaret Wise Brown did a series of "Noisy" books and we have a couple. If you're facing some grey, dull winter days, Charles Shaw's colorful pictures will pep you up!
The Winter Noisy Book
Margaret Wise Brown
pictures by Charles G. Shaw 1947
We follow the little dog Muffin who is hearing all the sounds of winter. The scrunch scrunch scrunch of fathers coming home in the rain, the click of someone turning on the light, the pop and roar of a fire in the hearth, and finally a steady whispering sound of the snow coming down. Even though our old copy is a little beat up, Shaw's startling artwork positively explodes off the page!
(This one has to be held together with tape!)
