My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love all the books from this author. So, it is opposite day at school and the clever and enthusiastic Dinopotomus is tasked to bring a big box of things. Opposite day means that they get to break the rules and disobey instructions, but only if they get it right. When Dinopotomus is tasked with a challenge, he has to put his thinking cap on to think the problem through and solve it.
It is such a fun loving book for kids, they learn about opposites. The illustrations and bright and colorful.
I enjoyed this book very much.

What a great book to teach “little ones” about opposites!

Dinopotamus has an adventurous day at school…it’s “Opposite Day!” Wickstrom has created a great way to teach opposites to children. The illustrations are engaging, and the story keeps children’s attention. It isn’t your average book about opposites. It really makes children think, but it is also a fun book to read.

My family loves it when I bring home books by this author! We always have such a fun time and great discussions. Opposite Day is exactly what it sounds like. The teacher wants everyone to try to do the opposite of what she says. But she doesn’t make it easy for them. This was a fun read that made both of my kiddos giggle as they acted everything out along with the story. It also prompted us to try and create our own Opposite game with more difficult instructions. Pick this up and share with the little ones in your life at home, at school, or at daycare.

Once again Lois Wickstrom shows her incredible talent not just in writing the story but in her fun illustrations. This series gives kids a confidence boost seeing hand drawn pictures and understanding they can do it too. Opposite day is always a fun day, but this book took it to the max or would it be the minimum? Hmmm. Every little thing was given in the opposite way, and I love how it showed that misunderstandings can happen to anyone, but Dinopotamus always has a friend to cheer him up. Easy to read for my seven-year-old and the inspiration he had on trying to say the opposite of everything he meant for the rest of the night.

Opposite Day for Dinopotamus by Lois June Wickstrom. This is my favorite children’s author so I knew I had to read this cute book to my 6 year old nephew. He loved it. Its full of cute illustrations and always a a lesson is included. When Dinopotamus gets to school he learns its opposite day and the teacher tells them they will learn to tell the difference in opposites. They are given different shapes of letters and fonts that are so fun for the kids. This is probably best for kids ages 4-8 and would make a great gift for the child in your life.

This is a brilliant story that teaches kids about opposites. This is something my daughter has struggled to understand a little bit, so reading this book was a fun and entertaining way to reinforce what she had already been learning. She found the book to be engaging and I could see she really connected with it.
This author knows how to create stories that draw you in and provide a fun way to educate children. This book was an enjoyable story that we all loved to read.

Just another great teaching story, with fun to be had by all. Dinopotamus and his friends are learning about opposite word meanings. Some are easy, but then some can be harder to understand. I love that this author did not use only easy examples. Leaving a thought process for the child and the characters in the story. Opening up more conversations between the reader and the students. In my opinion there is another better than a book that leaves room for more learning. After the story has finished. This is another book that belongs in every child’s library. I hope you enjoy the story as much as we did.

Opposite Day for Dinopotamus is a kids book. I love this book because it is educational for kids. While reading this book they can learn about opposites. The teacher gave the students instructions, but they had to do the opposite of what she said. I really liked the pictures in this book because it looks like someone actually colored in the pages.

Another cute story with Dinopotamus. What kid doesn’t love a story about a dinosaur? I love the art work in here by Lois Wickstrom. She always has fantastic illustrators. In this book, she was the illustrator! Today is opposite day and the kids in class must figure out what is the opposite of what the teacher says to do.

In Flying at Recess we meet Soara, Zanie and Lulu. 3 friends who do everything together but recess. At recess Soara flys into the clouds and with the butterflies to a meadow to drink the nectar as the butterflies are. This is such a cute little book to read to little ones. The colorful illustrations are great. A fun, quick read before bedtime or naptime for children

The illustrations of this book are very unique. Reading each page does make the reader think of the opposite (i.e. shut is open on opposite day). Opposite day does bring much joy to the characters in the book.

Today is Opposite Day at school and Dinopotamus is all excited. That is until the teacher asks him to “bring me the big box”. Oh no! Does she mean don’t bring the box? Bring the small box? Or not a box, but another shape? This was a cute story that will entertain young readers.

Opposite Day for Dinopotamus is a fun children’s book with unique illustrations. It likely follows the book Dinopotamus Goes to School, but they are unique stories. Dinopotamus goes to school and the teacher declares today is Opposite Day! The teacher has some silly commands for the kids to enjoy, as well as some tricky requests to direct them toward fun learning. My son thought it was fun and silly that some of the words were written upside down, with fun fonts, and in quote bubbles from the children illustrations. The illustrations look like they were drawn in crayon, which is unique. Silly fun book for younger readers.

This time it’s opposite day for Dinopotamus! He’s so excited to go and be a part. In this opposite day you are allowed to break the rules instead of following them… but only if you do it right!
This is a easily engaging story allowing children to explore their imagination and consequences of decisions and actions made with cute illustrations to keep the pages turning.
My daughter who’s 6 enjoyed this one immensely!

This is a cute story that explores the meaning of opposite. I like this series because it shows acceptance of individuals who are different and including them in the activities that are happening. I think many children will find this story interesting and I recommend it as something to read to your child. The author has a few series available for children that are fun and interesting. I think parents should check them out if you have children that love to read.

Dinopotamus is tasked with bringing the big box of things to do. When they are tasked with doing the opposite of what they are told it will take a lot of thinking to perform the tasks at hand.

This was an entertaining story that I think children will interact well with. Great fun to be had reading Dinopotamus handle each challenge. Kids will love.

After discovering the first book of the Dinopotamus Series I just had To come back and read this one. This talented author wrote and drew this series which is amazingly awesome! As always I like the Unique character she has created. This book is great for when your Littles are learning what opposite are. There are also a lot of good rhyming words and descriptive words for learning also. I’m looking forward to reading more from Lois Wickstrom and of this series. Also we should definitely do an opposite day here. It seems like it’ll be fun.

Another cute Dinopotamus book! Beautiful artwork, and I love the story, the diversity and the lesson so much. Opposite Day is such a fun idea for the class to learn about, and Meg is so compassionate when it comes to Dino thinking the teacher was telling him he did a bad job. The children and teacher interact with Dino so nicely and include him in everything, making sure he understands as well. I would love to read more Dinopotamus stories!

Opposite Day For Dinopotamus is the third book in the Dinopotamus series by Lois Wickstrom. It’s a fun children’s storybook, with cute (naïve style) illustrations that help to ‘teach’ children what ‘opposite’ means, giving many examples.
Dinopotamus and all his classmates learn to do the opposite of what the teacher says. Having a bit of an adventure along the way.
This is a very quick and easy read. My grandson loves dinosaurs and he enjoyed the story.
Happy reading.

Another great read by a favorite author! My favorite thing about this book (ok, so there are 2 things) is that there is a person in a wheelchair featured. It’s rare that this is seen in a children’s book but so very important as it opens up avenues for conversation. My second favorite thing about this book is the hand drawn and colored illustrations. I feel that it makes this book more authentic.

Dinopotamus is going to school again today but it’s “opposite day”. The teacher instructs everyone to the opposite of what she says. At first, it’s a bit confusing to Dinopotamus, but then it becomes more enjoyable.

A fun way to teach opposites!

Opposite Day for Dinopotamus was another fun children’s book by Lois Wickstrom. I always admire this author’s ability to craft a fun story while instilling knowledge. While reading this with my daughter, I remembered the childhood joy of insisting it was Opposite Day and giggling when someone said or did something ridiculous. This was a fun way to teach opposites and enjoy some great illustrations.

An interesting concept to teaching children opposite words. Aimed for children ages 4-8 the colourful illustrations make it easier for them to understand and pick up. Opposite Day for Dinopotamus is interactive and interesting making learning fun for kids. Read along as Dinopotamus and children have fun with Opposite’s Day and learn as they go each in their own way.
Whilst my four year old grandson had some trouble determining opposite’s my seven year old grandson was getting the hang of it by the story ended.
As always Lois’s books are good for anyone to enjoy from family, schools and libraries just to name a few.

Wickstrom has done it again with another cute Dinopotamus story! I absolutely adore the illustrations and how colorful yet basic they are. The way Wickstrom has introduced how opposites work is one I’ve never seen before and I think that a lot of the littles will relate to it. I also really like how she works problem-solving into her story with Dinopotamus and I really think the way Wickstrom has done this is how a kid would work through opposites as well. This is another great story to add to your ever-growing Wickstrom collection!
