I Get Loud — David Ouimet
This stunning successor to Ouimet's debut, I Go Quiet, follows a girl learning to express herself and connect with others.
When I am
swept into the light
of life, I get loud.
A girl finds her voice and befriends a stranger, who becomes her closest companion. They speak and sing and laugh, their friendship weathering darkness and light, stormy seas and calm waters. Then, embarking on an uncertain journey to a new land with thousands of others, they become separated. The girl worries that her voice alone is too quiet to find her friend and make herself known -- but it's their voices that lead them back to each other, and that preserve their pasts and pave their future in a new home.
The companion to David Ouimet's acclaimed debut, I Go Quiet, I Get Loud is a poetic and arresting fable about the power of expression and human connection in the face of change.
