Stuck / Oliver Jeffers

  • Philomel

  • 2011

  • When Floyd's kite gets stuck in a tree, he's determined to get it out. But how? Well, by knocking it down with his shoe, of course. But strangely enough, it too gets stuck. And the only logical course of action . . . is to throw his other shoe. Only now it's stuck! Surely there must be something he can use to get his kite unstuck. An orangutan? A boat? His front door? Yes, yes, and yes. And that's only the beginning. Stuck is Oliver Jeffers' most absurdly funny story since The Incredible Book-Eating Boy. Childlike in concept and vibrantly illustrated as only Oliver Jeffers could, here is a picture book worth rescuing from any tree. - From Amazon

  • Cause and Effect

  • I love the increasingly ridiculous things being tossed up in the tree just to get a kite down. And just when you think its all gonna be solved properly, it isn't. I enjoy the look of Jeffers handwritten typography but I often wonder if it is accessible to all.
