David Wiesner bol vždy fascinovaný sekvenciou myšlienok, ktoré predchádzajú zachytenému obrazu a nasledujú po ňom. Jeho diela pôsobia filmovo a zdajú sa, že divákovi odkazujú sled myšlienok vedúcich k danému okamihu a po ňom. Vzorované tapety z detstva s obrázkami rakiet, sloních hláv a zväčšovacích skiel v ňom prebudili kreativitu, ktorá jeho tvorbe dodáva snívajúcu, imaginatívnu kvalitu. Od renesančných majstrov po surrealistov Wiesner čerpal inšpiráciu na vytváranie nových svetov na papieri, často v bezslovných príbehoch, ktoré skúmajú podstatu vizuálneho rozprávania.
In this ingenious and imaginative - nearly wordless - picture book, frogs in a pond lift off on their lily pads and fly to a nearby town where they zoom through a woman's living room, encounter a dog playing in his yard, and distract a bathrobe-clad citizen from his midnight snack. Who knows what will happen next Tuesday?
A bright, science-minded boy goes to the beach equipped to collect and examine flotsam-anything floating that has been washed ashore. Bottles, lost toys, small objects of every description are among his usual finds. But there's no way he could have prepared for one particular discovery: a barnacle-encrusted underwater camera, with its own secrets to share . . . and to keep.
When the wolf comes a-knocking and a-puffing, he blows the pigs right out of the tale and into a whole new imaginative landscape, where they begin a freewheeling adventure as they wander and fly through other stories.
When he falls asleep with a book in his arms, a young boy dreams an amazing dream—about dragons, about castles, and about an unchartered, faraway land. And you can come along.
A 2014 Caldecott Honor Book In a near wordless masterpiece that could only have been devised by David Wiesner, a cat named Mr. Wuffles doesn't care about toy mice or toy goldfish. He's much more interested in playing with a little spaceship full of actual aliens--but the ship wasn't designed for this kind of rough treatment. Between motion sickness and damaged equipment, the aliens are in deep trouble. When the space visitors dodge the cat and take shelter behind the radiator to repair the damage, they make a host of insect friends. The result? A humorous exploration of cooperation between aliens and insects, and of the universal nature of communication involving symbols, "cave" paintings, and gestures of friendship.
When a new baby is delivered to a family of robots, the adults are flummoxed by technical difficulties. Big sister to the rescue! A hilarious gem from David Wiesner, three-time winner of the Caldecott Medal.
