"The quiet books that Marleen designs are such a valuable tool to use with children. Each page is beautifully handmade with attention to every little detail.

The language development opportunities from each page are endless. Every page is themed differently and keeps children engaged as they develop a multitude of skills without realising, as it is all so much fun.

I highly recommend these books for parents and anyone who works with children. They work really well keeping little ones occupied for car and aeroplane trips too!"

“Being a grandmother, it is a wonderful experience to enjoy this quiet book together with little Eva. Each page offers heaps of new discoveries and many fine motor exercises. As she grows up, we use this book for further development in language and mathematical skills. Through play, and without noticing, she is stimulated to become a clever little girl."

“These quiet books make me wish that I was a child again! So many colours, forms, and textures! The creative themes offer the ideal opportunity for parents to spend enjoyable moments with their little ones. Through playful interaction, the toddler expands his/her language skills and vocabulary."
