Bookroo's summary
Dive into a whimsical journey where opposites aren't as simple as they seem. With lively text and retro art, explore how big needs small, and above depends on below. Discover the surprising twists of perspective in this topsy-turvy adventure, challenging what you think you know about opposites. Are you ready for a fun-house ride through the world of relative terms and points of view?
From the publisher
When it comes to opposites, it’s all a matter of perspective! Lively text and fun retro art engage kids in the finer points of a favorite concept. Do you know opposites, yes or no? On. Off. Asleep. Awake. Opposites are a piece of cake . . . right? Not so fast! Time for a quick double take. Who knows what’s BIG unless there is SMALL? Does SHORT mean a thing except next to TALL? What is ABOVE and what is BELOW? The answer depends on who wants to know! Writer Susan Hood and illustrator Jay Fleck lead us on a topsy-turvy fun-house journey into the concept of opposites and takes it to the next level – with detours into relative terms and points of view (and a dollop of yin and yang for good measure).
