<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Saltzberg ("Good Egg") offers a one-of-a-kind interactive book that shows young readers how every mistake is an opportunity to make something beautiful. Pop-ups, lift-the-flaps, tears, holes, and smudges demonstrate the magical transformation from blunder to wonder. Full color.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A spill. A smear. A smudge. A tear. When you <i>think</i> you have made a mistake, think of it as an opportunity to make something beautiful!</b> <p/> A life lesson that all parents want their children to learn: It's OK to make a mistake. In fact, hooray for mistakes! A mistake is an adventure in creativity, a portal of discovery. A spill doesn't ruin a drawing--not when it becomes the shape of a goofy animal. And an accidental tear in your paper? Don't be upset about it when you can turn it into the roaring mouth of an alligator. <p/> An award winning, best-selling, one-of-a-kind interactive book, <i>Beautiful Oops!</i> shows young readers how every mistake is an opportunity to make something beautiful. A singular work of imagination, creativity, and paper engineering, <i>Beautiful Oops!</i> is filled with pop-ups, lift-the-flaps, tears, holes, overlays, bends, smudges, and even an accordion "telescope"--each demonstrating the magical transformation from blunder to wonder. <p/> <p/> <p/> <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A pleasingly tactile exploration of the possibilities inherent in mistakes. A torn piece of paper... is just the beginning! Spills, folded paper, drips of paint, smudges and smears--they all can make magic appear. An increasingly complex series of scenarios celebrates random accidents, encouraging artistic experimentation rather than discouragement. The folded-over paper can be a penguin's head; a torn piece of newsprint can turn into a smiling dog with a little application of paint; a hot-chocolate stain can become a bog for a frog. Thanks to a telescoping pop-up, a hole is filled with nearly limitless possibilities. The interactive elements work beautifully with the photo-collaged mistakes, never overwhelming the intent with showiness. Saltzberg's trademark cartoon animals provide a sweetly childlike counterpoint to the artful scribbles and smears of gloppy paint. A festive invitation to creative liberation. - <i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br><br>
