Reviews
PreS-Gr 1—A simple yet effective title on the concept of opposites. A robot is shown on the right side with sturdy gatefolds that young readers can lift up to reveal another bot that is the opposite of the initial robot shown. Rosenthal's retro illustrations capture the playful tone of the robots and make this an easy sell to children. Many of the pairs are effective and dutifully highlight the adverse (with the quiet/loud pairing proving to be especially amusing). The endpapers, which show a rapt audience of robots, alludes to the last spread that will have children giggling. This title combines a topic that kids will devour (robots) with an essential learning concept. VERDICT A fun ride through the concept of opposites.—Christopher Lassen, Brooklyn Public Library
