Brilliant, Nov 27 2011
By jkrnyc - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stuck (Hardcover)
I like all of Jeffers' books: all lovely and whimsical. This, though, is his best, in my opinion. It is absurd in a way that kids (even tinies like my 2.5 year old) and adults alike find funny, with a particularly amusing (and plausible even in the circumstances!) ending. I have already bought several copies for friends' kids.

Hilarious!, Dec 9 2011

This review is from: Stuck (Hardcover)
I've already read a couple Oliver Jeffers books, but this one is my favorite by far. Basically, Floyd's kite gets stuck in the tree, and he throws various items up to try to get it down. I got it for my cousin's kids (4 and 7), but my cousin and I were cracking up reading it!Here's a link to Oliver Jeffers reading it:[...]

Incredible illustrations! Well done book that young children enjoy!, Dec 14 2011
By San Diego SunshineMom - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stuck (Hardcover)
Oliver Jeffers does an amazing job with Stuck. My almost 4 year old son was laughing so hard and then had me read it several more times. That is a good thing. As the title states, we were "stuck" in laughter!. It is an oversized book with amazing illustrations and because of its size, a nice book to read to a group for story time. This book is refreshing and helps children creatively think about things in a new way. It also adheres to the young child's developmental sense of self in the end. Highly recommend for an entertaining read at bedtime or with your story time group.
