Black? White! Day? Night!: a book of opposites by Laura Vaccaro Seeger.
This is a wonderful lift-the-flap book that should not have librarians groaning in horror. The premise is that each page has a small window that shows part of the image under the flap. When the flap is lifted, the opposite of the first image is shown. So in the first image, a black bat is show for “black?” and the the flap is lifted to show that it is actually the mouth of a “white!” ghost. The flaps are all full-page size, so there is little chance for them to rip like smaller flaps. Additionally, the illustrations are child-friendly but also intriguing. This was a book that would be of interest to small children learning of opposites, but also for much older elementary children who enjoy a good guessing game. It is pure fun, but also educational. Libraries looking to get some quality interactive titles that will not fall to pieces immediately should purchase this one.
