Content
I am small and you are big. The plate is full, the glass is empty. During the day it's light, at night it is dark...The world is full of opposites, and even toddlers want to be able to name them. This is sometimes difficult, but clear pictures and moveable flaps help children develop these skills and grasp the concepts while having fun. Basic shapes are also introduced in the book: circles, squares and triangles. Examples from children's everyday lives and shape stencils help children recognize that these forms are everywhere, just waiting to be discovered. Search-and-find pictures invite children to identify the opposites and shapes they've become familiar with.
