Opposite Day

Let us know by sending a text message.In this episode, Sophie and Sebastian celebrate Opposite Day with their neighbours -- Bert and Fran, and Mrs. Wilson. Every kid of course likes to imagine what would happen if everything were opposite. What this story also explores is what happens to language and trust when no one knows if they can still take other people seriously. Can we still make our intentions known? In many ways, these concerns are also at the heart of the most influential children's book of all time, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Alice does not just travel to a different world. Lewis Carroll is primarily exploring the wonderland of language. But you don't need to worry about these larger questions to enjoy the story. "Opposite Day" is just a funny look at how even adults sometimes get drawn into playing a nonsensical kids' game.Support the show
