Loveable Big and effervescent Little opposite in size--and the way they see and navigate the world--as they follow a butterfly. Their journey is told entirely through pairs of opposite words and gentle artwork, and it's full of surprises, including an unexpected run-in with a cranky bear. Fortunately, Big and Little get from here to there and safely home again, just in time for a well-earned rest. The charming narrative arc that runs throughout the story really sets this book apart from other opposites books.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>In continuous full-page spreads, the illustrations are a warm, welcome blend of acrylic, pencil, watercolor, and digital collage. The text alongside each dog is accessible and clear, making this picture book a perfect choice for one-on-one sharing or a toddler storytime. A concept book with a dynamic storyline.<b>--<i>School Library Journal</i></b> <p/>Deep, richly hued realistic paintings tell a fuller story than that expressed through the total text of 30 paired opposite words. Pilgrim's detailed, actively drawn animals reflect expressive--and frequently contrasting--emotions, especially through her depictions of the dogs' eyes. . . . Few words pair with lots of humor for a delightful outing.--<b><i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b> <p/> For these friends, there are lots of ways to move through the world, but there's no need for opposites to oppose.<b><i>--<b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b></i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Cheryl Pilgrim is a writer, illustrator, and public school art teacher living in the Houston, TX, area, with the beloved dogs who inspired <i>Big and Little</i>.
