The delightful story of Friday, a dog who discovers that the world of art is filled with many wonderful friends.
A dog in an art museum? Maybe not most dogs, but Friday goes to the museum every Tuesday to visit his friends. One day Friday must say goodbye for the winter. Join the fun as Friday trots through the galleries, taking photos and saying goodbye to Maman the spider, Rosie the Riveter, George Washington, and many others.
Looking back on his day, Friday realizes that the works of art in a museum are more than just bronze and steel, paint and canvas, ink and paper. Instead, the art connects him—and us—to a diversity of cultures, stories, and dreams.
Through the art collection at Crystal Bridges, all of us—even a dog—become part of the American experience.

Recenzii
“Friday Comes on Tuesday: An Adventure at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art achieves what I think of as the gold standard in picture books: it somehow manages to be fun, informative, and meaningful, all at once. This story of a little art-loving dog is actually a look at how art and community are intertwined, each supporting and enriching the other. With bright, cheerful illustrations depicting artwork from a culturally diverse array of the artists featured at Crystal Bridges Museum, it introduces child readers to fine art while also being a sweet and imaginative story of a dog and his world. Teachers, parents, and librarians will love this book for the myriad ways it can be used educationally, while children will love it for the imaginative journey little Friday takes them on through the museum. Author Darcy Pattison and illustrator Rich Davis have created a brightly creative and informative gem of a book that deserves a place on picture-book shelves everywhere.”
—Monica Clark-Robinson, author of the Coretta Scott King Honor book Let the Children March and Standing on Her Shoulders
“Friday Comes on Tuesday is a wonderful picture book that helps young children appreciate art. Author Darcy Pattison focuses specifically on Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Arkansas, but this title could be used in conjunction with a visit to any art museum. Friday’s canine inquisitiveness and friendliness inspires readers to find their own connections to the paintings displayed in the galleries they visit. Rich Davis does a great job depicting the masterpieces and interpreting them with colorful and playful illustrations. I wish I had a book like Friday Comes on Tuesday when I was a kid!”
—Patricia Newman, author of Sibert Honor title Sea Otter Heroes: The Predators That Saved an Ecosystem
“The picture book is just the thing to share with children in the weeks leading to a planned visit to Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.”
