In keeping with the book I did on Monday, this is another cute little book. This one though, is hefty and thick. Pomelo, being a small, garden elephant who has reached a mild amount of fame in his native France, is not content to just dabble about in the usual up/down, left/right opposites. He thinks up loads of opposites.
Pomelo was once so small, smaller than the small elephant he is now, that he didn't understand opposites.
With such a simple concept, the pictures are pretty vital.
They could have gone with a door for this one. But how much more adorable is an open and closed thistle?
So basically, I went through and took a lot of pictures because the illustrations were so amazingly cute I felt you should see them.
And what a perfect way to describe a somewhat abstract concept like "extraordinary."
This made the kids laugh.
This one made me laugh!
While this book does not have a cohesive plot line from start to finish, you do learn that Pomelo has a bit of an unrequited love for this frog.
"....errr. Um....."
Poor Pomelo. So embarrassing to be expected to make conversation with your crush.
Alrighty. I still forget which is which, so it is important to include this information.
Ditto!
Hahahah
Poor Pomelo!
And what a perfect way to end a book!
So super simple concept, but brilliant execution!
