Opposites: The Opposing Forces of the Universe

This lush picture book with a die-cut cover offers a mix of science, poetry, and art to teach children about 11 natural opposites that are part of everyday life.

Everything that exists in the universe has an opposite, and this poetic journey captures the beauty of how none of these opposites remain pure or still. All opposites are complementary; one could not exist without the other—but opposites mix and blend all the time, and it is from this movement that the world as we know it springs forth in all its multicolored and diverse glory!

This window into the opposite and complementary forces of the universe introduces children to naturally occurring opposites like the moon and sun, the sky and earth, silence and sound, masculine and feminine, and even death and life.
