A charming introduction to opposites played out by two children tramping through a very British countryside. Up/down, near/far, spiky/soft, heavy/light (13 opposites are explored in all) are all demonstrated against a snowy landscape which stretches out from dawn to dusk and is animated by scurrying squirrels, flapping ducks, donkeys, foxes and ...bats!
