A propos du livre

Revue de presse

"With big, bold, surreal illustrations and engaging, offbeat humour, the book is a lovely way to explore the difficult, abstract concept of opposite with young children" (Carousel)

"This might be TV writer Tom McRae's first foray into children's books but the insight, humour and colour with which it explores the idea of opposites is that of a bona fide pro." (Kin London)

"The Opposite is the absolute model of what a children's book should be: funny, original, simple and charming . . . All the hallmarks of a classic in fact." (Stephen Fry)

"I found it marvellous. And Elena Odrizola's drawings are precise, elegant and offbeat." (Kate Kellaway Observer)

"The hugely imaginative story is well matched by Elena Odriozola's expressive illustrations." (Julia Eccleshare Guardian)

Présentation de l'éditeur

A little boy wakes up one morning to see The Opposite sitting on his ceiling. This impish creature manages to ensure that whatever the little boy says, the opposite will be true. The little boy tries to rectify everything as it goes wrong, but the mess in the kitchen and the classroom soon gets him into trouble. It takes some very quick thinking, and a clever twist, for him to be able to get rid of The Opposite once and for all!
