Bookroo's summary

Explore the fascinating world of animals where size tells a story. Each page reveals a pair of related creatures, showcasing their dramatic size differences.

From the publisher

Each spread of Big and Little shows animals that are related to each other but vary greatly in size. All animals are illustrated on the same scale, so readers can compare them throughout the book. “The distinctive cut-paper collages are real showstoppers. The placement of each one against a crisp white background cleverly underscores the differences in size.” – School Library Journal, starred review
