Bringing Out Your Child’s Inner Artist With “My Book of Beautiful Oops!” @workmanpub #BeautifulOops

I’m working with Workman Publishing to share this giveaway.

My Book of Beautiful Oops!

By Barney Saltzberg

In Stores Now

For Ages 3+

MY BOOK OF BEAUTIFUL OOPS! is a hands-on journal that’s designed to help young hands and minds turn an “oops” into art. The friendly green alligator-familiar to readers of Beautiful Oops!-prompts the reader to imagine the possibilities of a bent page. Decorate a smudge. Play with splats and spills. Even complete a poem that was accidentally ripped in half.

Filled with folded, crumpled, die-cut, and lift-the-flap pages, the activities will challenge the reader’s sense of play as they draw in, paint on, tear up, smudge, and ultimately artistically wreck the book. MY BOOK OF BEAUTIFUL OOPS! champions imagination, play, and the courage to express oneself. It’s about self-forgiveness and about turning off that inner critic that clamors for perfection. And it’s about freedom-the freedom to be creative and follow curiosity wherever it goes. That’s a lesson to celebrate!

About the Author:

Barney Saltzberg is the author of more than 30 books for children, including Beautiful Oops!, A Little Bit of Oomph!, Good Egg, and the bestselling Touch and Feel Kisses series. Additionally, he’s recorded four albums of songs for children. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife, two dogs, and a pond full of fish.

Check out the Beautiful Oops! Website for more information and fun!

This is a small hardcover book packed with thick cardboard pages for kids to draw on, color, rip and more. Kids are encouraged to be creative with this book. My daughter was hesitant at first to write in a book but then excited when I encouraged her to (and of course explained how she could only do that to this book.) Each page has something to do to prompt kids to appreciate “oops!” We make mistakes everywhere and kids should know they are okay and easily fixed up! I love the prompts in this book and that is held up to my daughter’s creativity!

BUY IT: Check out My Book of Beautiful Oops! on Amazon or wherever books are sold.
