Two little mice introduce the concept of opposites in this bright, educational board book, with the help of a ginger cat too. The cat is big, the mouse is small; one mouse is safe inside a cheese, the other is outside with the cat; one mouse is alone… then together as the three play games on the last page. It makes for a very effective visual demonstration of what opposite means with lots to talk about on every page.
Peep-through holes encourage hand-eye co-ordination and sensory development. A fun and effective first learning book in a lively series.
A bright, fun first concepts book featuring sweet mice characters and simple, yet clever die-cuts to explain the concept of opposites.

'The first in a series of die-cut, first concept board books in which a mouse helps explain what opposite means.' - The Bookseller
Mike Henson grew up in Zimbabwe, but after bobbing around the world, has ended up on a little island off the south coast of England. Mike and his wife have three children, who they suspect might be monkeys, and secret plans to steal a baby hippo (it hasn't happened yet - and probably won't - ever!). Mike loves to create - stories, pictures, songs and mess in the kitchen. As an author, illustrator and designer, his main workspace is a little caravan in the garden, crammed full of books, sketch pads, pencils and other nonsense.
