Meet best friends Alex and Lola. Everyone says how different they are, but they always have fun together. Alex loves doing noisy exciting things, whereas Lola likes observing and painting. Alex is worried that they may be opposites, so Lola explains what opposites are, and shows Alex that it is their differences that make them best friends.Deceptively simple illustrations and quirky text combine in this brilliant debut - future storybooks in the series will develop the Alex and Lola characters and introduce the concepts of time and color.
