Boyd's opposites concept book has a striking shape (tall and thin) and palette (red, black, white, and gray) and features eye-pleasing compositions on each page. A framing story of two bears and their chairs resolves sweetly in the end, preceded by examples of unusual opposites, including Big Zebra/little broom and little umbrella/Big Bird.
