About this deal

There are no words in this picture book; only gorgeous whimsical illustrations of ... flying frogs!!

Would love to join this, as I have been reading the posts from other bloggers for years now for Top Ten Tuesday. I may not be able to do every prompt but I look forward to getting some done (at least one a month) to change things up on Bookluvrs Haven. Tuesday is a wordless picture book that vividly depicts strange events that happened at various times of the day on Tuesday. Richard Osman (left) on the set of Pointless with Alexander Armstrong.

I love this man's imagination. How does he take something so simple and ground it enough in reality that I was totally there with him. This book is magical.

David Wiesner specializes in wordless picture books. In this one, the only word used (and it's used sparingly) is Tuesday as a reminder that all the events are taking place on a Tuesday night. Wiesner has always been intrigued by and curious about what comes before and after the captured image. His books somehow convey the sequence of thoughts leading up to and following each picture, and that quality explain why they are frequently described as cinematic. Lovely artwork and lovely idea. I certainly enjoyed it and can only imagine what a child looking at it via nightlight will think.Tuesday, written and illustrated by David Wiesner, is a 1991 wordless picture book published by Clarion Books. Tuesday received the 1992 Caldecott Medal for illustrations and was Wiesner's first of three Caldecott Medals that he has won during his career. [1] Wiesner subsequently won the Caldecott Medal in 2002 for The Three Pigs, and the 2007 medal for Flotsam. [2] Description [ edit ] Lovejoy, Hannah (20 November 2020).

I have never read a “wordless story” before and didn’t know what to expect. I found myself scratching my head at times in trying to figure out the point of the story. Apparently when it turns night outside, frogs fly around at night in Lillie pads. There is no point to this story but I did find the pictures to be very interesting. I guess that this is one of those books that enforce the reader to really use their imagination and think. I can only wonder how a parent would approach reading a “wordless story” to their children.Text isn’t a direct contributor the story; there’s a grand total of six words in the whole story and are used to describe the time and date. What it does instead is create a mysterious and tone; The use of so little words in the story make the reader feel like they don’t really know what will happen. The line “Tuesday evening, around eight,” is very vague, not revealing anything, just the time. The time of day revealed in the text also adds to the tone. For a child, that time usually means time for bed but for the story, it means the beginning.

The only text in the book is the indication that it’s Tuesday with the time. Children love the watercolor illustrations and their imaginations can run wild with this story because it’s surreal. So now we know what Pointless creator Richard Osman has been up to behind that laptop: drawing on his passion for classic English crime fiction for his own attempt at the genre. When word got out it sparked a 10-way publishing auction, and the novel has become the fastest selling adult crime debut since records began.NA) Servers reset in: November 13, 2023 09:00:00 AM UTC (NA) Servers reset in: 5d 6h 57m 15s ( Update) Character Talent Materials are Materials that are used along with Character and Weapon Enhancement Materials and Character Level-Up Materials to level up a Character's talents.
