Tuesday
A wordless book by David Wiesner
Tuesday at Amazon.com
Level: Advanced
Description: A nearly wordless book with great watercolor illustrations depicting a fleet of frogs being surprised when their lillypads start to fly. Their faces show increasing delight as they fly over the pond, across a field, past some startled birds and into a neighborhood where they surprise a two people, a dog and some laundry. At the end of the book, another Tuesday begins and we see some barnyard pigs begin to fly. Absolutely delightful book. Wonderful to encourage children to describe what they are seeing.
