Reviews

[Melinda Christensen · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a wonderful book! It teaches opposites in so many ways, for example: tale, short; wide, narrow; thin, thick; tight, loose; push, pull; over, under; sad, happy; clean, dirty; and so forth.

Great simple book especially if you're trying to learn Spanish!
The illustrations really help provide definitions.

I found a few of the things in this book a bit odd.
