Description

Beautiful Oops!, by Barney Saltzberg; Workman Publishing, 2010; $11.95; www.workman.com.

Make no mistake – this is a perfect gift book. If ever a picture book worked for all ages, from 3 to 103, this fold-out, lift-the-flap, pop-up book with simple and not-so-simple paper engineering is it. Readers and listeners alike learn that there are life lessons for all of us in every unexpected “oops!” of a mistake. Artist/illustrator Barney Saltzberg creates a multi-media experience by showing – even more than telling – how to use our imagination to turn life’s little glitches and blips, spills and smudges, drips and smears into something positive and, in this case, a surprisingly beautiful and whimsical piece of art. Colorful, dynamic, thought- and smile-provoking.

“Love this! It’s about using your imagination!”
– Mother of one
