Tuesday 《疯狂星期二》 ISBN 9780395870822

星期二晚上8点左右，池塘里昏昏欲睡的青蛙被惊醒了！接下来，没有文字的描述，只有在荷叶上尽情飞翔的青蛙带你穿越城镇的每个角落，感受一个不平静的夜晚，初升的太阳照耀着恢复平静的城镇。然而，下一个星期二的晚上，房子的外墙上借由灯光的照射，半空中出现了猪的影子……　　这本书对于孩子最大的吸引力，应该是书中梦境般的故事展现。在夜晚飞翔的青蛙，乘坐的荷叶好像阿拉伯神话故事中的飞毯。精美独到的画面是图画书的一大特点。而像大卫·威斯纳这样的创作者，在精美图画的基础上，更融入令人瞠目结舌的大胆幻境。对于成人来说，他所描绘的这些画面可能有些匪夷所思，再加上没有文字的描述，令很多成年人在第一遍阅读的时候会感到不明所以。然而对于孩子来说，却让他们一眼就能明白图画所描述的故事情节，并且发自内心地感到这些场景简直就和他们时常在梦境或幻想中出现的情节一模一样。 In this nearly wordless picture book, Wiesner ( Hurricane ; Free Fall ) again takes readers on an imaginative voyage, using everyday reality merely as a touchstone. Here, a squadron of frogs soars through the night air one Tuesday, squatting upon lilypads that they use as flying carpets. Apparently intending no harm, these mysterious visitors to a suburban development leave a minimum of disruption as evidence of their eerie flight: a few startled eyewitnesses, some scattered lilypads and a spooked dog. Wiesner's visuals are stunning: slightly surrealistic, imbued with mood and mystery, and executed with a seemingly flawless command of palette and perspective. But, perhaps because this fantasy never coalesces around a human figure, it is less accessible and less resonant than his tales that center on a child protagonist. Ages 5-up.
