Long Way Away: A Two-Way Story
Long Way Away: A Two-Way Story | Frank Viva
10 posts | 6 read
In the first reading experience of its kind, blast off on a journey through twenty-six feet of continuous vertical art, which reads beautifully no matter which cover you start from. Begin at one end, and you're on the ocean floor; follow a creature along a bright yellow trail up into deep space to his alien family's embrace. Or, start from the other end and follow an alien floating down into the depths of the ocean to rest.Whether journeying home or heading to bed, enjoy a satisfying and surprising trip from rising star Frank Viva.

This book had very interesting illustrations and line work, and overall an interesting setup with the page flipped vertically. The illustrations also follow in this pattern which is different but may be confusing for a new reader.

I am not sure if I would use this book in the classroom. It is a fun read for new readers but it lacks a plot or message. However would be a good book for students who are working on decoding words.

(picturebook)This book could be used in the classroom to work on rhyming. The pictures will intrigue students to listen to the rhyming words throughout the book.

(picturebook) This book is read/flipped vertically. It is about space and the wonders of the world. It has few words that mostly rhyme with huge pictures covering the pages.

I am not sure this book had a point. It says it‘s a two way story, but I don‘t get it. A blobby alien is coming down to earth and then under the sea. It will pass many things on the way. The illustrations are great and they only thing keeping this from being a one star read.
