Description: Emily is not intentionally loud--she just can't help it, and it seems like there's nowhere she fits in, until the day she sees a ship with a sign that asks for "loud help." So Emily sets out for an adventure on the high seas, where perhaps there is a place for her after all. Full-color illustrations.
