    Default BOOK REVIEW: Tuesday

    I know, not quite the book review that you'd expect on here. While going through a box of childhood items, I found the book Tuesday, by David Wiesner.

    I saw it and said, "Oh! This was my favorite book!" Sure enough, I open up the front cover, it says "Happy 8th Birthday, Love Mom and Dad" and underneath that I had written "my favorate book"

    My love for frogs goes back even farther than I remembered!! There is nothing quite like a book about flying bullfrogs My kids are now enjoying the book as much as I did! If you have frog loving children in your household, who love to make up their own stories (the book is without words!!) then this is a perfect book for them!!

    Wow ... i want that book! I just love the sample illustrations on the website. The frogs all have little characters of their own ( i love the one with the smile and a wave going by the window) It looks truly fantastic. I think we should have a thread here dedicated to reviews about 'children's' books about Frogs and Toads here
