The monumental bestseller Quiet has been recast in a new edition that empowers introverted kids and teens
Susan Cain sparked a worldwide conversation when she published Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking. With her inspiring book, she permanently changed the way we see introverts and the way introverts see themselves.
The original book focused on the workplace, and Susan realized that a version for and about kids was also badly needed. This book is all about kids' world—school, extracurriculars, family life, and friendship. You'll read about actual kids who have tackled the challenges of not being extroverted and who have made a mark in their own quiet way. You'll hear Susan Cain's own story, and you'll be able to make use of the tips at the end of each chapter. There's even a guide at the end of the book for parents and teachers.
This insightful, accessible, and empowering book, illustrated with…

Quotes

  • tytahas quoted3 years ago
    Hans Eysenck, also believed that we have ideal levels of stimulation. So, extroverts might seek out noise and crowds, but introverts look for peace and privacy. We don’t do this simply to relax. It also helps us think clearly.

    But if pulled too far, we can snap. The trick is to know our own limits.
  • tytahas quoted3 years ago
    Yet we can stretch ourselves. The sensitive and cautious can learn to act boldly; the impulsive and outspoken can learn to delay gratification and be diplomatic.
    I like to think of this as the rubber band theory of personality.
