All of a sudden, the lily pads on the pond transform into something like a flying carpet and the frogs begin to soar up on the lily pads. They invade the skies in hundreds of thousands and they travel to a nearby town.

They invade into an old lady's room when she is dozing off in front of the TV. They fly by a man who is eating a sandwich in his house and he seems very confused to see flying frogs. They fly into sheets that are on the clotheslines. As the sun rises over the horizon, the flying lily pads stop to fly and the frogs fall back to the earth.

The people in the neighborhood are quite puzzled with this incident and the police start an investigation to figure out the reason.

All is well until next Tuesday at 7:58 pm when a shadow of a flying pig is seen on a barn door…

>> This is pretty much a wordless book except for the line - it's Tuesday (with the time).

>> Gorgeous watercolor illustrations that drive our imaginations wild.

>> The idea of frogs traveling on lily pads is so magical and mysterious.
