Black? White? Day? Night?

Author/Illustrator: Laura Vaccaro Seeger
Year: 2006
Reading Level: 4-8

Plot Summary: This book is a series of opposites, represented with both words and pictures. Each page starts with a word and small picture, mostly covered with a flap. When the flap is lifted, the opposite word is shown, along with an illustration that incorporates the smaller image. It is really quite a delightful experience.

Award/s: ALA Notable Children's Book

My Rating: A. This is a fun book. I think it would be fun to read with a kid and see what they think will be under the flap--not just the word but how it's shown.
