Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

This is a beautiful new book that’s great for opposites. I used it in my toddler storytime, right after Bread and Butter and right before This is Big Big Big. The pictures are simple and clean, easy to see from far away but also interesting up close. It starts with black and white and then moves into brilliantly-colored animals. We had a lot of fun pointing out our body parts, being quiet and loud, and generally interacting with the book. This is definitely a book to grow with as there are notes on all the animals at the end, with their full names and endangered status (vulnerable, threatened, critically endangered, etc).
