Opposites

A lively cast of animal characters acts out pairs of opposites — hot and cold, young and old, wet and dry — through rhymes and everyday moments like teeter-totters and phone calls.

For the toddler who's just discovering that words come in pairs, this one turns big and small, up and down into a page-by-page game.

• Imagination: What's the biggest thing you can think of? What's the smallest?
• Real-life connection: Are you fast or slow when you run to the door?
• Story & noticing: Which animal on the teeter totter is up, and which one is down?
