Simpkin Can Teach

Simpkin is the name of a boy who explains words by his actions - - illustrations of him UP and DOWN, COLD and HOT, NICE and NAUGHTY, etc. It's a nice book of opposites for teaching young readers. The text reads like a Dr. Suess book, but with interesting and humorous color sketch illustrations of the boy, his family and friends. The words are basic for early readers to try by themselves. An entertaining, useful book.
