Here's a life lesson for all children (and parents too): It's OK to make a mistake. In fact, better than ok! Beautiful Oops! shows young readers how every spill and smear, stain and tear, is an opportunity to make something beautiful. Filled with pop-ups, lift-the-flaps, tears, bends and smudges, it's a joyous book that celebrates the journey from blunder to wonder. A spill. A smear. A smudge. A tear. When you think you have made a mistake, think of it as an opportunity to make something beautiful! 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. An award winning, best-selling, one-of-a-kind interactive book, Beautiful Oops! shows young readers how every mistake is an opportunity to make something beautiful. A singular work of imagination, creativity, and paper engineering, Beautiful Oops! 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. Review: I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK!!! - 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. Review: This book is a wonderful way to help children feel better about making mistakes - 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!

Beautiful indeed and so helpful!
This book has been fantastic for helping out 4 year old overcome her perfectionism. It's beautifully written and engaging with lovely interactive pages. Now when things don't go quite up plan we say "remember beautiful oops! What can we do / make instead?" We've had far fewer melt downs & tears since we've been reading this. Highly recommend it.

Impressively creative
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!

Great book, great message
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”

Beautiful
What a truly beautiful book. My daughter has been struggling with making mistakes, it’s often the end of the world, but this book shows the opportunities created by little ‘mistakes’. It’s a beautifully crafted book, few words, but with flaps and interactive pages. I was worried it wouldn’t be worth the price as it is quite expensive for a book that you can’t see, but it’s worth every penny.
