From the author-illustrator team who brought you The Invisible Boy
comes the story of a boy who won't stop talking--until he gets
laryngitis. You don't have to be a chatterbox to appreciate this tale of
listening and learning.
Owen McPhee doesn't just like to talk, he LOVES to talk. He spends every
waking minute chattering away at his teachers, his classmates, his
parents, his dog, and even himself. But all that talking can get in
the way of listening. And when Owen wakes up with a bad case of
laryngitis, it gives him a much-needed opportunity to hear what others
have to say.
From the author-illustrator team behind The Invisible Boy comes a
bright and lively picture book that captures the social dynamics of a
busy classroom while delivering a gentle message about the importance of
listening.
