★ An inviting tale that will stretch inquisitive and observant young minds. --Kirkus, starred review

A beautiful, lyrical book about a boy seeking silence in a bustling city, for fans of The Quiet Book and Wabi Sabi

Do you have a favorite sound? little Yoshio asks. The musician answers, The most beautiful sound is the sound of ma, of silence.

But Yoshio lives in Tokyo, Japan: a giant, noisy, busy city. He hears shoes squishing through puddles, trains whooshing, cars beeping, and families laughing. Tokyo is like a symphony hall!

Where is silence?

Join Yoshio on his journey through the hustle and bustle of the city to find the most beautiful sound of all.

★ This book will be especially welcome in settings that teach yoga or mindfulness, but its message and striking art will be appreciated anywhere the din of daily life can overwhelm. --School Library Journal, starred review
