A very entertaining and humorous book.

This book, although it contains very few words, was so very much fun to read! I read it with a six year old friend of mine and we had a ball. The whole premise of the book is just hilarious and the expressions of the airborn frogs tell the tale. We had lots of fun filling in our own words and sounds to the book. I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes to use their imaginations and loves to laugh.


We all need more flying frogs in our lives.

When my dad disappeared into Waldenbooks for nearly half an hour, I went in search. Hunting through his usual haunts (Sci Fi, Sports), I was a bit shocked to find him tucked away next to a rack of rack of Dr. Seuss books. In his hand was an open copy of "Tuesday," in which he was thoroughly engrossed. As I watched, he shut the book and took it over to the cashier. When the man recommended it highly, my dad stammered, "Umm, it looks like something the kids might like." I'm 19; my sister's 16. We out grew picture books quite a few grades ago.

So after weeks of mercilessly teasing Dad about buying a picture book, my sister and I finally snuck a look at the thing. And promptly became fans. The book can be read in less than five minutes, but it *should* be poured over for hours. The illustrations are absolutely beautiful and the story is slyly playful. Get it and read it immediately--even if you have to pretend it's for your kids.
P.S. X-Philes, take note: all the action takes place at 11:21...

Wonderful picture book for children.

This is an absolutely terrific wordless picture book for children. The illustrator has done a beautiful job of picturing flying frogs, their facial expressions are humorous. I highly reccommend this book to teachers or anyone with children of their own. This book is definately one that you will want to add to your personal library






pure excellence

this book is not only for children... it brings out the imagination in all. the single greatest book i have ever picked up is "tuesday" simply because without text it leaves the reader to make up the story as they turn the pages. instead of reading words and generating pictures in the mind the reader can generate a whole story around the pictures.
