How to Make an LDS Quiet Book by Ann F. Pritt

Ann has contacted me! What a wonderful lady, she has told me that I can offer her book to all of you and she also gave some wonderful advice. She said:

"You have my permission to offer pattern. I developed the Quiet Book at a time when quiet books were being made by many mothers and brought to church, but none had a religious theme. The purpose of mine was to combine religious stories with skill-building and interest that would help little children be quiet in church.
Velcro is simpler than snaps or buttons, but including a variety of fasteners such as snaps, buttons, zippers, etc can strengthen small muscle development and build confidence, competence, and self-esteem. It is good to include other skills as well such as braiding (Ruth's hair), weaving (tower of Babel), lacing and tying a bow (Moses in the Bulrushes), and telling time. Enjoy!"
