“For all collections serving the impetuous, contradictory, joyful, exploratory board book crowd. . . This book may have been born as a picture book, but its true self suits the sturdier format perfectly.” –School Library Journal, starred review of the board book edition


“A toddler lives through a day full of opposing directives with their stay-at-home dad. . . The parts of this day will be familiar to parents and children alike. . . A fresh take on opposites and routines for the very young.” –Kirkus Reviews

“Opposites loom large for babies, and Gee brings the concept to adorable life. Her action-packed visual vignettes refreshingly feature a brown-skinned baby and caretaker dad who dramatize the obvious (‘no’ and ‘yes’) and the more subtle (‘yay’ and ‘uh oh’). Her touch is feather-light, with many telling details to spot.”  –The New York Times

“This opposites book follows one active brown-skinned toddler and stay-at-home-father throughout a busy, fun-filled day. . . When Mom gets home from work, the family’s love and contentment is further underscored by a book-and-snuggle time while caregiver Dad takes a much-needed load off – next to a pile of laundry, because a parent’s job is never done.” -The Horn Book
