Product Info Reviews

Description:

In a child's world, there are big things and then there are little things: big tree, little leaf; big cake, little cookie; big mommy, little baby. Todd Parr's BIG & little, an adorable companion volume to another study in opposites, Black & White, celebrates size. Just small enough for a toddler to hold, and tough enough to withstand toothy attacks, this little board book is full of big ideas. Young readers (or viewers) compare trucks to tricycles and skyscrapers to doghouses as they identify boldly drawn objects against bright, colorful backgrounds. Simple, childlike illustrations appeal to young eyes, never detracting from the task at hand. Each two-page spread shows a big something, with the word "BIG" printed on top and the name of the object below, and a little something, with "little" above, the name beneath. Children will marvel at the different contexts: a banana can seem huge when compared to tiny peas, just as an elephant looms mightily over an ant. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter
