The prolific Kevin Henkes wonderful Shhhh humorously captures life with a preschooler. First, the story starts out very quietly as a young child describes everthing and everyone who is asleep in her house. The assumption by the reader is that this youngster will also join everyone in their slumber. The assumption is wrong! The child can't stand the silence and awakens everyone by blowing a toy horn. It's a great anti-bedtime story. ( )

Everything and everyone is quiet so early in the morning. That is, until the toddler wakes them up and then-- what "Good Morning" cheer is spread to all. Excellent short book for the very young and perhaps, the very old. Excellent illustrations! ( )
