Opposites

I am a Sandra Boynton fan and my four-year-old son has several of her books. I bought this one for my 18-month-old and he already likes it. It is good because he is too young to follow a story, but he loves looking at the pictures and turning the pages. The cardboard is sturdy, which allows him to play with the book without help, and the pictures are really cute. Besides it helps to build new vocabulary (small, short, tall; high, low; fast, slow; heavy, light; day,night; in, out; whisper, shout; weak, strong; right, wrong; hot, cold; young, old; wet, dry; hello and goodbye). We've had our copy for six months and it is in excellent condition. I can say the same of Boynton's The Going to Bed Book, which has been with us for 3 years and has been a favourite all this time, and after reading it several times every night to one or the other child, it is still in one piece and the pages have not worn out. After buying "Opposites" for my son I have purchased another copy for a friend's toddler and he seemed to like it too. I highly recommend it if you like Sandra Boynton's style.

Another great Sandra Boynton book- I'm gradually buying the collection - my little one is a complete bookworm and I'm quite picky which kids books I like. So far loved all of hers- great illustrations and a fun read (even on a daily basis )

I love this author, I would definitely buy more or her books, this one is really cute

Arrived battered and bruised, almost as if it has been wet and all edges frayed.

Good!
