This is a fun children's book, which is suitable for babies and toddlers. It is a bright and colourful book, with cute illustrations showing animal characters learning opposites. There are peep through holes in the book which encourage sensory development. Highly recommended!

Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book.

Die-cut holes reveal fun details in this delightful series on concepts. Little Mouse and his friends demonstrate the concept within a story. For example, in Numbers, the text encourages the reader to count how many mice are needed to eat a large cheese. Only the numeral is shown, not the word for the numbers 1 through 5, making this better for toddlers than emergent readers. In Shapes, the setting is a mouse birthday party. For the younger crowd, this is very effective and fun, using bright saturated colors and cute mice.

Cute little book aimed at curious little minds about opposites. A great little series of books for babies and very young children

This simple book for toddlers includes a variety opposites such as sit/stand, big small. The colourful illustrations are mainly made of primary colours and the large, simple text is easy to read and predict. This would be a great book to introduce the idea of opposites, same and different, and even the concepts of holding a book and listening to reading to very young children. I would recommend this book to parents of children in the infant to preschool range. Thanks NetGalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book!

These Little Mouse Lessons should come in a bundle. These are cute little starter books and a necessity in a child's library.

My three year old liked using this book to learn about opposites. The story is cute and simple to understand.

Here is another entry in Mike Henson’s cute “peep through” book series. This time the topic is opposites. The illustrations of mouse and buddies are expressive and engaging. Children will learn some words as they watch a mouse and cat become friends. Here is a nice addition to the series.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Quarto-Frances Lincoln Children’s Books for this title. All opinions are my own.

Opposites
by Mike Henson
Very cute very simply drawn for the youngest of readers, one word promenade with the image supporting comprehension. The book is best for preschool and young readers, but will help with ELA language learning. I can see this used in English acquisition classes, for all levels of learners.

Opposites is a great book for young children to learn about opposites (Big/tall, high/low, etc). I loved the animal illustrations and the large text for each word. Very fun!

My nearly 4 year old has additional needs and couldn't be less interested in books if he tried but because of how short this book was, and how brightly coloured it was I managed to engage his attention enough for him to listen.
He didn't really understand what the opposites were but he enjoyed it all the same.

Too young-pitched for this to be a book, it's a tool for getting tiny hands used to the feel of holding books. And it's a perfectly pleasant one, as a mice or two – together with a ginger cat – teach us some opposites. There's not exactly much in the way of coherent plot, but the target user will be more keen on the small peep-holes through the board pages that tease us about what we'll be seeing next. One of four in a small range that have all shown signs of being a success so far.
