AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

Two dogs spend a fun day together, playing in the fields, going into the woods, and getting back home. Each page has the two dogs doing opposite things, like going over or under a fence. Jumping high or low for butterflies.

This is a cute book because the opposites are told in a story form, which is easier and more interesting for students learning about opposites. The illustrations are fun but sort feel off, I finally came to the conclusion that they have sort of a dark cast to them, which is kind of a downer. Not my favorite art.
