Description

A fun and touching debut that explores the power of finding your voice.

Rud膩beh (Rudy for short) loves to talk, sing, jump and shout. There鈥檚 just one problem: the adults in her life are always telling her that she is SO LOUD. When her grandmother (M膩m膩n Bozorg) visits from Iran for the first time, Rudy worries that she might be too loud for her. But as she tries to be quieter, Rudy starts to feel less and less like herself. Listening closely to the many sounds in her world鈥攆rom husky howls and streetcar chimes to M膩m膩n Bozorg鈥檚 roaring sneezes鈥擱udy tries to figure out the full range of her own voice, discovering along the way the joy in being loud.

With exuberant illustrations by Shiva Delsooz, this charming story will resonate with readers who love to make noise and are still learning where and when to take up space.
