The Very Quiet Cricket: Board Book Author: Eric Carle

ISBN: 9780241137857 Format: Board Book Number Of Pages: 24 Published: 25 September 1997 Country of Publication: GB Dimensions (cm): 18.0 x 12.6 x 1.9 Description: A little cricket has lost his song - he rubs his wings together and nothing happens. He sets off to find his voice and meets all kinds of creatures who make all kinds of noises, but still he can make no sound at all.

One day he meets a special friend, another cricket and this time, when he rubs his wings together, he makes 'the most beautiful sound you have ever heard.' The sound, produced by a hidden chip, reinforces the joyful conclusion to the cricket's dilemma.
