Overview

What is hard and what is soft? What is curved and what is straight? What is safe and what is dangerous? Learn these and many other opposites in English and Spanish in the bilingual title Opposites-Opuestos. Can you name something fragile, something fast, and something loud? And do you know what opposites are? The world around us is filled with them! When you look closely at things, you will learn that they can be cold, light, pointed, or even stinky. Each of these things has an opposite—something hot, heavy, rounded, or fragrant. And there is much, much more to discover in this book!

Definitely of use to language educators, this packs a lot of opposites in and presents them - and only them - in nicely pictorial manner, and in English and Spanish at the same time. So on one page we have a collection of hot things - sun-baked sand, agua hirviendo and so on, and on the opposing page the direct opposite, from a banador mojado to a frosted-up window. What just those quickly-found examples should prove is that this is not a simplistic word list, but something with much more scope and variety, allowing the younger audience to come here and find some instances of opposites to fix that concept in their mind, and older students the ability to learn some useful vocab. I wonder too how young minds will get round the fact boiling water is here twice - that might be fun to explain. Either way, really nicely done, this is spot on in what it wants to do, and to repeat has more about it than many books that cover similar ground in just the one language.- John Lloyd
