DESCRIPTION:
From the creator of A Book of Sleep and A Book of Babies comes a beautiful new book of animals—and opposites! The sky is dark and the Opposite Zoo is CLOSED. But the monkey's cage is OPEN! Time to explore Follow the monkey as he visits all the animals in the zoo: fast and slow, big and small, noisy and quiet, soft and prickly! Filled with energetic illustrations, friendly animals, and a clear, simple text—all wrapped up in a gorgeous package—The Opposite Zoo is a fun and lively introduction to animals and opposites for the youngest picture-book audience.
It's all happening at the opposite zoo! Cessie Beautiful pictures illustrate the tour of the " opposite zoo". We get to see large,small,quiet loud and many other combinations of animals. Great book.. Nice book to teach opposites Jane Illustrations are lovely. Nice book to teach opposites.. Laura L. Harrison said Stunning and Remarkable. I wish I could give The Opposite Zoo 10 stars. There is a mystical, child-like quality to this picture book that is incredibly difficult to achieve. If anyone remembers spin art from fairs and amusement parks during the 70's-it has that bright, helter skelter, original quality but in a professional manner. Each page is a glorious wonder. Bravo!

To showcase the concept of opposites, each spread features two animals that contrast in some way, each labeled with a descriptive word—a tall giraffe and a short pig, a soft tiger and a prickly hedgehog, a slow sloth and a fast cheetah. Young readers will enjoy spotting the sneaky monkey on every page and following its nocturnal adventure, as well as seeing all of the zoo denizens on the last spread. Though the animals are not named, they are easily recognizable. From School Library Journal PreS-Gr 1—When the Opposite Zoo closes for the night, a monkey escapes its enclosure to wander around and
