Bookstore/Library Assignment

This is the story of how the sounds we hear connect us to the world around us and how sounds can connect people who live far away from each other.

As two children on different continents fall asleep, they are affected by the many sounds of night; like the song of the cricket, the kreck of a frog, the hoot of an owl, the rumble of a whale, and the squawk of parakeet. Ingenious split screen illustrations of the story. ( )
