This book is presented as a series of riddles. Each page asks a question - is it little, is it hot, is it dark - and is replied in the negative. The illustration shows two things to represent the opposites - a button and a globe for little and big, for example.

The eventual multilingual answer is that it is the moon.

I find the layout of the book to be a little confusing, and also feel that a pronunciation guide would be useful, particularly for those languages that are not written in the Roman alphabet.

But the illustrations are well-done, and this is a good example of how to come to an answer by getting the right facts. ( )
