Description

You have to be ever so quiet when you come to our house. There are animals living here. Wild animals. They're sleeping now. And you couldn't -- wouldn't -- want to wake them up. Would you AUTHOR Meredith Costain lives in inner-city Melbourne with a menagerie of pets: dogs, chooks, ducks and a very unwild cat. She is allergic to noisy houses. Her books include Rosie and the Bunyip, Musical Harriet and Doodledum Dancing -- a 2007 CBCA Honour Book. ILLUSTRATOR Christina Booth works from a studio in her back yard in Launceston, Tasmania. The 'No Noise' house is a lot like hers. The inspiration for the illustrations came when looking for a wayward black chook called Omlet in the dark with a torch in her pyjamas! Christina's books In the Deep Blue Sea and In the Deep Green Jungle and Purinina were notable books in the CBCA awards in 2008.
