immature i.e. shoes on walls, etc.

A must have.

If you’re about Dr. Seuss all the way, then you MUST have this in your collection. It’s fun because the kids become part of the story as they have to find the WACKY THINGS within the pages/story. Never gets too old as we read it almost every Wednesday. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! :)

My favorite book as a child!

This was my absolute favorite book growing up - we had a whole collection of Dr Seuss books, along with fairy tales, nursery rhymes, Leo Leonni - and Wacky Wednesday was my favorite. As an adult looking back, I believe this book - above all others - tuned into both my creative side and my analytical/detailed/detective side. My poor parents who hoped for a doctor - I graduated with a degree in English and cite Dr Suess as my main influence. I'm very happy to be have found this book again + buy it for my toddler today, who is also creative and analytical. Yes, you'll find more wacky things than said to be there, but this carries the book further out of the realm of your typical neat little story, and encourages people + kids to use their brains to always be looking further.

Wacky Wednesday

Wacky WednesdayTheo LeSiegReading Level 1.2 Wacky Wednesday is a great book for younger children! I would really recommend it! The illustrations are wonderful, bright, funny and very cute! Wacky Wednesday is a very good book for finding and helping children to look for different objects. It is really quite fun trying to find the things that are wacky!!

What's Wrong with This Picture?

This book deserves more than five stars and is one of the best beginning readers ever created!Wacky Wednesday combines the interesting repetition of a beginning reader with a fun set of picture puzzles. The two features are wonderful together for encouraging careful observation (useful in life, as well as in word recognition).As a result of this brilliant book concept, Theodore Geisel (a k a Theo. Le Sieg -- Geisel backwards, and Dr. Seuss) have teamed up with New Yorker cartoonist, George Booth, to create a fun classic that will be enjoyed by parents and children for many generations to come.Imagine a day that begins when you look up in bed over your head, and see something funny:"It all began with that shoe on the wall.A shoe on the wall . . . ?Shouldn't be there at all!"A child wakes up one morning to finds increasing numbers of unusual objects in rather odd places. Pretty soon, the objects even begin start to split apart. "And I said, 'Oh, MAN!' And that's how Wacky Wednesday began." The child looks out the window and sees a bunch of bananas growing in a normal tree and water running through a garden hose with a long section missing in it. Out in the hall, a candy cane holds up a part of a hall table, one door has two knobs, and a picture is upside down. In the bathroom, the child wears one sock while showering, there's a palm tree in the toilet, one faucet is upside down, and a fish is swimming happily in the shampoo bottle.In the bedroom while dressing, four things are wrong (including more misplaced shoes). In the kitchen, this grows to five. On the way to school, there are six. Later, down the street, there are seven. Outside the school are eight. In the classroom, there are nine. That's when cognitive dissonance sets in. The teacher says, "Nothing is wacky here in my class! Get out! You're the wacky one! OUT!"Outside the school now, there are ten new wacky things. Down the street, eleven more . . . then another twelve. "I ran and knocked over Patrolman McGann." "'Don't be sorry,' he smiled. 'It's that kind of day. But be glad! Wacky Wednesday will soon go away!""Only twenty things more will be wacky." "Just find them and then you can go back to bed."And with that, "Wacky Wednesday was gone . . . and I even got rid of that shoe on the wall." The pictures present lots of opportunities to help your child notice how things work. Water needs to go through something to come out the other end. You need a door at the end of steps to get into a house. Windows cannot stand by themselves in the middle of a lawn. People don't drive sitting in the back seat of a car. The beauty of this kind of picture juxtaposition is in the opportunity to have many conversations with your child to open up the beauty of how things fit together, and don't work so well when they don't fit.As for the beginning reader aspect, the book has many one syllable words that rhyme. This provides the maximum ease for decoding the letters and turnin

Wacky Wednesday

This book is clever and interesting. It was a favorite of mine and my siblings when we were young. In this book, wacky things continue to happen as the day goes on. On this Wednesday one little boy is the only one who realizes that things are not as they should be. Wacky Wednesday is a book that i recommend anyone to read to a small child, they will truelly enjoy it.

Utterly entertaining for my 3-year old son!

I now have Wacky Wednesday memorized because my 3-yr old son wants to read this book every night! I like the book because it gives him a chance to think about what is going on in the pictures and find what is "wacky" or out of place. I recommend this book to anyone with small children!
