Based on transforming an “oops” into something beautiful, this wonderful pop up book builds every young child’s creative confidence. "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". Barney Saltzberg is the author and illustrator of "Good Egg", "Peekaboo Kisses", and lots of other bestselling books for children. I begin every class with this wonderful book!

AN EXPERIENCE I WILL NEVER FORGET: AFRICA
JOLLY JEMIMA PRESCHOOL
ZAMBIA, AFRICA
May 2019
I had the amazing opportunity of being placed in a Preschool in Livingston, Zambia through the volunteer organization IVHQ to assist in teaching Preschool Classes. This experience was truly unforgettable and life changing for me.
