Reach for this book when your child is struggling to find the right words to express a big feeling, or when they seem frustrated that they are not being understood. It is a perfect choice for children who are naturally observant or those who benefit from visual cues to navigate social interactions. The book gently illustrates that communication is about so much more than just talking, showing how our bodies, faces, and actions tell a story all on their own. Marie Hall Ets uses simple sketches and brief text to guide children through the silent language of the world around them. From a mother's comforting hug to a cat's twitching tail, the book explores how humans and animals alike signal their needs and emotions. It is an excellent tool for building empathy and social awareness in preschoolers and early elementary students, helping them realize that even when someone is quiet, they are still 'talking.'
