"Carolyn Crimi’s
The Louds
Move
In!
tells of a quiet neighborhood
changed when the Louds arrive, talking, eating, and playing loud. The neighbors
are angry — but suddenly the Louds vanish and the neighborhood seems
subdued. What was once offensive has become not just normal, but desirable and
fun."

"Indeed, this crowd
pleaser has it all: noise, varied and practically nonstop; funny names; a
personable goldfish; the word
underwear;
and a huge communal burp as
denouement."

"Good will triumphs
over stylistic differences, and warmth and good humor abound in this satisfying
tale."
