As she did in Now I'm Big and Can You Guess?, Margaret Miller again creates a world of fun and learning with her lens. Relative size is a concept the youngest children can enjoy as they view a child's hand and an adult's hand, a large block and a tiny block. Each vibrant, colorful spread explores size in a way that will delight young viewers and make for a happy learning experience wherever there are little hands to turn the pages.
My 19-month old son loves this book. Each spread features a small picture on the left-hand page and a big picture on the right-hand page; both pictures are the same objects and people, but posed differently, showing the contrast of big and little. You'll find feet, hands, balls, boxes, hats, etc. My son studies the pictures, noticing the same objects/people in different poses. Finds it fascinating! This book shows little boys and girls, moms and dads, black, white, and Asian. Nice touch. And just a few words per spread. The pictures mostly do the talking.All in all, a great book. We checked it out from the library, but we might be buying this one if not just for ourselves, but for friends' toddlers. The author has a few other books we're going to look into, too.
