Format: Hardcover
This fun, interactive book, shows children what mistakes can be turned into. The book starts with a tear in a piece of paper that the child can touch and look at, and when you turn the page the tear is the mouth of a crocodile. This book shows a bent corner of paper turning into part of a penguin, a smudge becoming a bunny face, a stain from a cup becoming a frog, a crumpled piece of paper becoming a sheep, and it even has an accordion-like stack of papers to look into to see what the holes in papers hold. There are few words, and the interactive portions of this book would even be fun for kids up to Kindergarten or 1st grade, but it is suitable for young children as well. The interactive portions are so interest, and so far from lift-the-flap books. The illustrations are amazing to look at, they are colorful and work very well with the tears and the flaps. Children will love seeing what each "oops" turns into. This holds book holds a lesson, as well, not to give up if you make a mistake, you'll never know what that mistake could lead to. Overall, this is a really amazing book.
