Rediscover Imagination

My boyfriend and I have "read" this book several times together. How's that? We find a new favorite frog or interesting frog antic every time we read it....I cannot thank my three year old neice, now five years old, enough for asking me to read it to her two years ago over the holidays at my mom's (grammy's) house. I bought the hardcover book the next day and it has only gotten better and better every time!

In the words of my neice in response to the first time I half asked/half read the words--Next Tuesday 7:58pm--OH NO! WHEN PIGS FLY! GRAMMY IS GONNA BE RICH!!!

A night out on the town with frogs.

This small book for children, which won the 1992 Caldecott Medal for best illustrations in a book for children, essentially has no words, a tale being told solely by pictures. It's a fun story about an unusual Tuesday night, starting at dusk, in which frogs discover that they can fly around town on lilypads (an have fun in so doing). Even adults have a hard time putting the book down!

An intergalactic phenomenal event.

Every Tuesday there's and event that occures just before midnight. Only the animal kingdom participates and the human race is vagily aware of the activities thay are going around them. The dogs sound the alarm. What are they howling about tonight?

Hop out and get it

I am a library major and had to read this book for my children's literature class. The minute I picked this book up I was hooked. Although there are few words, I spent hours with this book, making up different stories in my head. I reccomend this book to people of all ages, especially those with children. A different story can be had each and every time you open the book.

evening, at a quiet swamp, then turns peculiar

David Weisner's TUESDAY hooked me so completely by the third page, it was a thin excuse to stammer something like: "Uh, it's for my 3 year old...". The calming deep blues and greens of the oustanding illustrations are only the first wonder. It is wholly funny and needs only the few words it has. My son was right to gasp of the frogs as they unwittingly begin to levitate on their formerly restful lilypads: "The frogs! They don't know WHAT to do! This turtle. HE can't believe it!" Nor will you... and you will love it for its utter uniqueness and ability to so completely captivate both young and old. I laughed until I cried!
