First Friends: Opposites
High and low, open and closed, awake and asleep. Join a group of friends at childcare as they get ready for naptime and wake up again, and learn about opposites through the moments of their day.
Opposites are easier to understand when kids can see them and do them. Readers stretch their arms high, hang them low, yawn and close their eyes right along with the characters. The familiar routine of rest time gives the book a calm, predictable rhythm, and it gently previews transitions like winding down and waking up.
The last page invites kids to find and act out opposites on their own. Sturdy board pages and a smaller size make it easy for little hands to hold and turn.
Board book, 18 pages, 6.5 × 6.7 inches
Teaches opposites through movement and daily routines
Interactive last page for practicing opposites
