Maisy Big, Maisy Small: A Book of Maisy Opposites
Lucy Cousins
Picture Book (Series)
Ages 1 to 3
Candlewick Press, 2007, 978-0-7636-3406-3
Are you ready to spend some time with Maisy Mouse? In this book Maisy is going to show us a collection of colorful, sometimes funny, and always charming opposites. Some of the opposites will be familiar, like seeing Maisy in the dark and in the light, and seeing Maisy in a hot place and in a cold place. Others are a little more original. We get to see Maisy alone and then, on the next page, there she is surrounded by her friends. Here is Maisy covered in spots and the next Maisy that we see has stripes covering her body from nose to tail.
This is a perfect book to introduce children to some of the world’s many opposites. The pictures are bright, cheerful, and appealing. Maisy is, as always, impossible to resist with her wide smile, her pink ears and nose, and her busy life.
There are many other titles in the Maisy Mouse series which compliment this book very well including “Maisy’s Book Tower.”

Action Alert
Reading is Fundamental (RIF) needs your help. The President's proposed fiscal year 2009 budget released in February eliminates the Inexpensive Book Distribution Program, which is the RIF Book Distribution Program. Unless Congress reinstates funding for this program, RIF will be unable to distribute 16 million books annually to the nation's youngest and most at-risk children. RIF serves 4.6 million children. Please click on the link below to visit the RIF Action Alert page so you can make your voice heard and support their efforts.
