A visit from Silence

When Little Fox is left alone, an unexpected visitor gives the quiet a presence she can meet and gradually get to know. Their shared snack and Little Fox’s new awareness of her heartbeat and thoughts frame silence as something more than an empty stretch of time. The book’s allegory opens a way to talk about solitude, independence, mindfulness, and self-regulation, while keeping those ideas grounded in a child’s encounter at home.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children exploring the experience of spending time alone
  • Families and educators seeking a picture book to prompt conversations about quiet, mindfulness, or self-regulation

Book overview

⭐ "Little Fox's new friendship may inspire young listeners and adult readers alike to listen to their thoughts and remember the value and joy that can be found in the quiet." --Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (STARRED REVIEW)

Solitude, quiet, and independence are celebrated in this tender picture book about making friends with silence, perfect for SEL conversations about mindfulness, self-regulation, or alone time.

When her mother leaves the den, Little Fox expects to spend the next few hours by herself. But then she hears a knock at the door--she has a visitor.

At first, Little Fox is scared: Silence is so big and strange. Then they share a snack, and Silence helps her hear her heartbeat, even her own thoughts. Maybe time spent with Silence isn't so bad after all. Maybe Silence can be her friend.

This allegorical story from Spanish author N
