Synopsis
Frogs rise on their lily pads, float through the air, and explore the nearby houses while their inhabitants sleep.

It's around 8:00 on a Tuesday evening when something odd happens down at the pond. To the amazement of a sleepy turtle and a small school of fish, a group of frogs suddenly floats into view--not in the pond, but in the sky, on magic carpet-like lily pads. Now hundreds of frogs are flying through the night, surprising birds, confusing a sleepy man, getting tangled up in some laundry hanging on a clothesline, floating into the house of a snoozing woman, and having a scary encounter with a dog. As dawn breaks, they head back to the swamp leaving the town littered with damp lily pads. The frogs' adventure might be over, but as the last illustrations reveal, it seems that next Tuesday, pigs will fly. Consisting of a mere 12 words, TUESDAY is illustrated with watercolor paintings and is the winner of the 1992 Caldecott Medal.

Industry Reviews
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.)
