Summary: Stories For Children / Allegories for Adults
Comment: A grasshopper has six different encounters on his journey through the 57 pages of this book. In the first encounter, "The Club," he meets ga group of beetlesh that enthusiastically support/rally for gmorning,h but become rather cross when they discover that the grasshopper loves gafternoonh and gnighth too. In the second encounter, gA New House,h the grasshopper comes upon a gwormh that lives in an apple, which suddenly begins to groll down the roadh and smashes ginto a hundred pieces.h The completely unfazed worm then crawls into ga new house.h In the third encounter, gThe Sweeper,h the grasshopper runs into a ghouseflyh that is intent on sweeping guntil the whole world is clean.h In the fourth encounter, gThe Voyage,h the grasshopper comes in contact with a know-it-all gmosquitoh that insists that the grasshopper use a glittle boath to cross a gpuddleh because git is a ruleh and grules are rules.h In the fifth encounter, gAlways,h the grasshopper who does gsomething different every day of his lifeh meets gthree butterfliesh who gdo the same thing at the same time each and every day.h In the final encounter, gAt Evening,h the grasshopper comes across gtwo dragonfliesh gzipping and zoomingh around so rapidly that they gdo not have time to look ath a variety to things, as opposed to the grasshopper who is ghappy to be walking slowly down the roadh taking in everything. A child who has learned to read at age four will be able to handle this at age five and six, but will most likely not comprehend the intended allegory.

Summary: Grasshopper on the Road
Comment: I like the book called Grasshopper on the Road. Grasshopper wants to go on an adventure. He finds a road. He finds one that goes all around town. In his adventure he meets some bugs along the way. I would give it a 4. I like the pictures and story but I didn't like all the dark colors that the illustrator used. Dark colors are gloomy.
