Olivia's Opposites hardback

2008-12-02
love the hardback indestructible nature of the book, perfect for the two and under crowd.

Yea for Olivia!

Another one for my CA granddaughter's collection. She loves Olivia and who wouldn't. Excellent buy and nice seller to buy from!

NOT WORTH IT!!!!

This book is not worth it. It is too short with one word pages. It's cute but not worth buying. After reading other Olivia books, I was extremely disappointed when I got it in the mail.

Nothing special, unless you just LOVE Olivia

If you are an Olivia nut, then I guess I can see the appeal, but otherwise, there is absolutely nothing special about this book. The photos are dull, the choices of opposites are nothing interesting, and I don't find the photos very intuitive for explaining them. Looks like just another way to make a few bucks from what others seem to explain are already drawn pictures thrown into a new format.

Try BIG Little or Quiet LOUD by Leslie Patricelli for good explorations of those words at least...really relevant ones for little kids (there's also Yummy Yucky, but I haven't read that one yet!)

Not Olivia's best

My kids LOVE Olivia, but this one falls short. It is short and has no real story.

Come and go with Olivia!

In this enchanting board book, toddlers will join everyone's favorite piglet as they learn about opposites.

Olivia's Opposites, an inteligent book 2007-01-11
I like very much this book, it's a small book for children under 3 years, It teaches in a original way how to recognize some opposites, with beautiful pictures of Olivia.-

Super book 2 2007-01-11
Another great Olivia book. My daughter loves saying opposite words now because of this book.

Masterful Olivia Performance. 2006-12-05
I can't explain the somewhat tepid reviews for this board book. It is compelling, a must-read you will not be able to put down (unless of course you are acting out the "down" page). You owe it to your toddler to get this book for bedtime, if only to puzzle out exactly how to explain "plain" and "fancy" to a two and a half year old. Good luck and enjoy!

Another fun Olivia experience 2006-03-24
My one-year old chooses this book to have read to her all the time. She especially loves the Quiet-Loud and Open-Close opposites, but you can have fun with all of them.
