Oops! - Board Book

by Julie Massy (Author), Pascale Bonenfant (Illustrator), Charles Simard (Translator)

Tap the page, shake the book, shout, clap and imagine a silly world of before-and-afters in this interactive board book.

What happens when you knock on an egg? Flip a plate of sloppy spaghetti? Clap your hands near a tree full of birds?...OOPS! When little ones might otherwise be encouraged to be careful or quiet, in Oops! they are invited to explore cause and effect in mischievous scenarios without the real-life consequences. The results are often surprising and always fun!
