Beautiful Oops!

This is a gorgeous book about making the best of what you have, turning negatives into positives, and it's so fun and such a fantastic lesson to teach. It has lots of brilliant flaps and things that my toddler loves to interact with, for example it shows a bent page corner that has been turned into a penguin, or a rolled up ball of paper that's now a sheep. It's a nice length too - maybe about a 5 minute read but feels substantial so it's brilliant if you want a quick bedtime story, and it's solid enough for it to be safe in the hands of a small toddler. The only thing is the ball of paper came off fairly quickly, but once I stuck it back down, we haven't had the problem since. The copy we have was given to us as a gift and we loved it so much, we bought this one to give as a gift. It'll definitely be getting the sequel and really hope it's a book that my kids end up reading to their kids.

Beautiful book.

My son has been going through this “I need to do everything perfect phase” or have a tantrum or not do it at all. He loves this book, looks at it over and over and is starting to laugh at “mistakes”

What a gorgeous book this is!! We love it. Initially purchased after an Accident educational psychologist recommended it for my SEN child. Very interactive. So many tabs to open or look under. Highly recommend for any child in primary school.

My daughter is 4 if she's drawing or painting it has to be "perfect" this book was recommended by a therapist we saw and it really has helped my daughter realise that mistakes happen and we can work with them. Really good book!

This is a great production feat and lovely to look at, though it feels rather short as a reading book. I bought it for my nephew who was going through a phase of only wanting to do things if he was perfect at doing them - I hope it helped him see the beauty in mistakes too!

This book is a wonderful way to help children feel better about making mistakes. Bought this for my son who aged 6 has started getting very upset when he makes a mistake in his drawing (picked up this from school, as before starting he was very happy with his own talents). This book helped him to know that a mistake is not a problem or a failure to do something right, instead each mistake is an opportunity to explore another idea. He loved it, especially the fact there are different flaps to open or ideas to explore. My son is now much happier when drawing, he has spent a week turning every mistake he makes into something else wonderful. Buy this to make sure your children are not averse to taking risks, they need to learn that every slip of the pencil is a Beautiful Oops!

This book is beautifully made, it's got flaps to lift and different textures, it's has a great lesson in that mistakes are opportunities to makes something great! Really stunning book. So glad I bought it!

The best creative book ❤️❤️❤️

Me encantó el diseño y gráficos, el material es grueso y resistente. Muy útil para darle significado creativo a los errores en cualquier edad.
