Features: This is a series of books that help children establish concepts of size, speed, length, height, and more through fun comparisons, with each book focusing on the comparison of two concepts. The author uses this unique approach to allow readers to understand two opposite concepts while also learning about various aspects of animals, plants, nature, biology, and science and technology. The books are filled with beautifully drawn, brightly colored illustrations that make abstract concepts concrete, helping readers more intuitively see the differences in comparisons and making them easier for young readers to understand and accept. In this book, the illustrations of objects being compared in length are drawn to scale on the facing pages. The longest object will appear as the shortest object in the next two pages (the names of the objects are in the boxes next to their illustrations). Then, in these two pages, the longest object will again appear as the shortest object in the next two pages, and this cycle continues throughout the book.
