Editorial Comments

Product Description:
Mr. Fooster seems like your average fellow, albeit one who travels with an old bottle of bubble soap. One Tuesday morning, however, he takes us into a rich and vivid world unlike any we've seen before—a world where questioning your assumptions can set you free. Heading out the door with no particular place to go, Mr. Fooster is led by his boundless curiosity to reflect on questions like why is it you never see baby pigeons, and who figured out how to eat artichokes? Mr. Fooster shows us that pondering the little things in life can be a reward unto itself.

The pairing of Tom Corwin's lyrical prose and Craig Frazier's enchanting illustrations create a world where believing is seeing. MR. FOOSTER TRAVELING ON A WHIM is the perfect gift book for anyone looking to escape the rigid confines of reality. Take a vacation you’ll never forget and explore a realm of wonders and possibilities with Mr. Fooster.

5 out of 5 starsIt's not that simple
Don't be fooled by the simplicty of this little book. It delivers a whallop when you least expect it. Adorable illustrations and a whimsical text make it a delight. Do not overlook this one.



5 out of 5 starsI think I'm in love
I'm not usually attracted to quick-read graphical books of this ilk, but I literally could not put this one down. I didn't want to leave Mr. Fooster's world, because he asked all those questions that I've asked myself in the background of my mind, but were drowned out by that pseudo-busy-ness of my so-called "life." This book holds a truly magical experience that I will recommend and recommend and recommend.



5 out of 5 stars Magic Lives
Adulthood can be such a lonely place. As children we had the luxury of losing ourselves in fantasy. Stories were a major part of our lives as children. This amazing masterpiece will give any reader of any age the experience of being a child again. It will spark the memories for the older readers and will help to broaden any child's imagination. This little gem is like a warm blanket on a winter's day. Close your eyes and imagine! Meet your new best friend, Mr. Fooster.



4 out of 5 starsMr. Fooster...A Gentle Reminder
In this slim volume you will find the eye opening story of Mr. Fooster's travels. He goes for walks with seemingly no purpose but to see what he will see. Along the way he has interesting and surprising encounters and makes good use of his old bottle of bubble soap.

The author has written a lovely tale that encourages adults to think outside the box and try to remember the wonder and imagination that we had as children. As we grow up we forget to stop and really look at things and we forget to ask questions. In so doing, we miss opportunities that we might have had, were we more open-minded.

The lyric prose is accompanied by Craig Frazier's lovely sepia toned pen and ink illustrations that enhance the story. [...]



5 out of 5 starsWhimsical wonder
A delightful prod to my adult imagination, this book reminded me to view the world anew. Tom Corwin has created a wonderous world enhanced by Craig Frazier's beautiful illustrations. I very much enjoyed this whimsical journey, as real life sometimes is too linear.
