Poor Mr Quiet doesn´t look forward to Christmas, like you and I do. It´s just too noisy for him. Noisy crackers, noisy carol singers, a noisy postman delivering Christmas cards, and, noisiest of all, an annual visit from Mr Noisy himself! But perhaps this year will be different. Maybe, just maybe, Mr Quiet will find a way to get the Silent Night he´s always dreamed of .
