T
he back cover calls this board book '
a first opposites book, a first art book
', and its front cover shows a
tall
giraffe dwarfing a
short
bird. Inside we find all kinds of opposites from a
big
elephant and
small
mouse, to sailboats sailing
over
fish
under
them in the ocean, and on to
light
and
dark
,
day
and
night
.
T
om Slaughter's art is bold and with simple lines, while Marthe Jocelyn's text flows from one concept to the next in rhyme.
Over Under
is a great starter board book to explore simple concepts of opposites together with little ones.
