5.0

This is a great, basic introduction to the idea of opposites, replete with simple illustrations in Sandra Boynton's fun style. I especially like that it rhymes! It's a great, quick board book for us to read on the go or before bed. My three-year-old gets to point out and think about pairs of opposites, and my one-year-old can enjoy the bright colors and the rhythm and rhyme of the text.
