The unpredictable events of a particular Tuesday unroll before the reader with the precision and clarity of a silent movie. A Caldecott Medal book.
Frogs rise on their lily pads, float through the air, and explore the nearby houses while their inhabitants sleep.
The nearly wordless Caldecott-winning book follows a squadron of frogs as they fly through the night on lilypads; PW called the visuals "stunning: slightly surrealistic, imbued with mood and mystery." Ages 5-8. (Aug.)
More Reviews and RecommendationsMultiple Caldecott Medal winner David Wiesner has carved a unique niche for himself in the field of visual storytelling. Whimsical and sophisticated, his picture books are pure delight for children and grown-ups alike.
