Enormous Big and tiny Little, two adorable dogs, go over and under, deep and shallow, in and out in pursuit of a butterfly.
Cheryl Pilgrim is a writer, illustrator, and public school art teacher living in the Houston, TX, area, with the beloved dogs who inspired Big and Little. Cheryl works in a variety of media including pencils, watercolors, oils, acrylics, and digital collage. This is her first trade picture book.
"In continuous full-page spreads, the illustrations are a warm,
welcome blend of acrylic, pencil, watercolor, and digital collage.
The text alongside each dog is accessible and clear, making this
picture book a perfect choice for one-on-one sharing or a toddler
storytime. A concept book with a dynamic storyline."—School Library
Journal
"Deep, richly hued realistic paintings tell a fuller story than
that expressed through the total text of 30 paired opposite words.
Pilgrim's detailed, actively drawn animals reflect expressive—and
frequently contrasting—emotions, especially through her depictions
of the dogs' eyes. . . . Few words pair with lots of humor for a
delightful outing."—Kirkus Reviews
" For these friends, there are lots of ways to move through the
world, but there’s no need for opposites to oppose."—Publishers
