Fun with language! What is an antonym? You'll find the answer inside this book—it's all about antonyms! Author Brian P. Cleary and illustrator Brian Gable creatively clarify (not confuse) the concept of antonyms. Their clever (not foolish) rhymes and comical (not serious) illustrations combine to highlight key words. Each pair or group of antonyms is printed in color for easy identification.

      K-Gr 3 -Cleary describes and illustrates antonyms from the obvious -stop and go, - -yes and no, - -front and back, - -fast and slow, - to the more obscure: -excite and soothe, - -hefty and diminutive. - He elaborates on reasons for celebrating opposites and also describes how to create them through the use of powerful prefixes such as -un, -dis, - -im, - and -non. - The illustrations for some pairs must have been quite a challenge for Gable, for example, depicting -absurd - and -somewhat normal - in two cartoon drawings. The bouncy lettering style enhances the whimsical rhymes and makes for yet another strong addition to collections of books about the English language." -Kathleen Meulen, Blakely Elementary School, Bainbridge Island, WA"
