Illustrated by
Jay Fleck.
A boy and his animal friends, an elephant and a cat, show readers how opposites can go from straightforward ("In? Out!") to more complex depending on one's perspective ("Who is ahead and who is behind...is different for everyone standing in line"). An amusing rhyming text and nostalgic, flat digital illustrations present a nuanced examination of the concept of opposites.
