Synopsis

A book about opposites from bestselling author-illustrator Liesbet Slegers!

Koala is sleepy and quiet. Here comes Monkey. He is active and noisy. And it’s really lively in the jungle now!
There’s a lot happening in the jungle. If you take a good look around, you’ll see lots of opposites. Is Giraffe’s neck short or long? And is Elephant wet or dry?

A fun book with flaps that make animals appear in surprising ways. For children ages 30 months and up, with a focus on the child's language development.

About this title

About the Author:

Liesbet Slegers (1975, Belgium) studied Graphics and Illustrations at the Saint-Lucas institute of Antwerp. She works as a fulltime graphic designer and illustrator. With her simple, recognizable style and vivid colours she knows how to attract the attention of every toddler. In her many books, Slegers frequently focuses on “the first experience of a toddler,” a time she characterized as “exciting but also very scary! I try to help them with my books,” she added, “and also try to give the parents or teacher some assistance!”

Review:

"Young toddlers will find these flaps easy to open, and they can relate to the activities the animals are doing (eating, sleeping, playing). Pair this book with Big Horse, Small Mouse: A Book of Barnyard Opposites by the same author to introduce more opposites into a child’s vocabulary." - Curled Up Kids
