Pomelo's Opposites

120 pp. | Enchanted Lion | July, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59270-132-2 $15.95
(4) K-3 Translated by Claudia Zoe Bedrick. Illustrated by Benjamin Chaud. The amiable pink elephant introduced in Pomelo Begins to Grow returns in a third cozily hand-size book, this time to demonstrate dozens of opposite pairings. Some of the pairings aren't, strictly speaking, examples of opposites ("polka-dotted"/"striped"; "having"/"being"), but the creators make a familiar concept smile-worthy through their inventive vignettes: "something" (a teapot) faces "whatever" (a teapot-Pomelo hybrid).
