You and Me: We're Opposites by Harriet Ziefert


It is a fun-loving book that helps children to learn in an exciting way about opposites. It has opposites to describe things they are doing as well as adjectives that describe each of their characteristics. There are countless opposites out there and when is a better time then now to learn them? The images on each page do a great job emphasizing and distinguishing opposites. The whole book stayed with the idea of being in a forest while the animals were talking to each other. It was great seeing how excited the animals were to learn and talk about opposites. I’m not sure what kind of colors or techniques were used but all the images were comparable to a cartoonish style. Also, since this is geared toward younger children, I loved that they went wild with using vibrant colors. It really brightened up the pages and made them cheery!
