A colourful book with over 60 flaps to lift to teach little children about opposites in a fun way. Pages include colourful scenes at the park, in the ocean, in the jungle and more. Each flap has its opposite hiding behind it. Bright illustrations of large and small parrots, high and low swings at the park and hot and cold picnic foods make the opposites clear and give prereaders lots to spot and talk about. With pages for commonly used opposites such as above and below, inside and outside and big and little.
Felicity has worked for Usborne for over 30 years and has written and edited hundreds of titles, from books on tractors to genetics, from Shakespeare to mental health, and plenty of sparkly unicorns. Felicity is an expert in making tricky topics friendly and accessible to young children and recently has been writing books that celebrate feelings, friendship, empathy, families, and diversity. When she's not writing or researching very specific details on dinosaurs, Felicity can be found tramping through fields and forests foraging for food or just curled up with a bag of Twiglets, a couple of cats and a crossword.
