The book's approach is to use bright, kid-friendly photos on pages where the color runs from edge to edge. It starts off contrasting a baby and an adult and then proceeds to show a goldfish in a bowl, and a giant aquarium with sharks and turtles.
This last photo, btw, is the only dark one in the bunch; the rest are bright and cheerful and quite creative. For example, the author has chosen a hornet coming out of a small hole in some wood and contrasted it with a big bunny sitting in the opening (hole) of it's giant den. There is also a mouse house which is contrasted with a family in front of their house.
This would be a good book toddlers and preschoolers. Particularly those that are bored with the standard types of contrasts that are shown.
