Publisher Marketing: Bartleby Huddle is a sweet, happy child. He gurgles and coos, giggles and laughs, but he hasn't said a single word-not baby, not peekaboo, not even MINE! The rest of the noisy Huddles- Mama, Papa, and big sister Isadora-outdo themselves trying to make Bartleby say . . . something! It's only wise Grampy Huddle who understands that Bartleby will speak in his own good time. And when he does speak, they'd better listen!
