Saltzberg travels the country talking to schoolchildren and teachers, and recently did a standing-room-only event at the National Art Educators' Association convention. "The concept that an 'oops' is OK takes the sting out of making a mistake," Saltzberg says. Saltzberg shows us how a mistake can be made into something beautiful or clever. An accidental tear in your paper can become the roaring mouth of an alligator. A spill doesn’t ruin a drawing-not when it can be seen as the shape of a monster. In his bestselling BEAUTIFUL OOPS!, Saltzberg offers a life lesson and an antidote to our overly-structured perfectionist culture that traps kids and adults alike. Author and illustrator Barney Saltzberg tells kids it’s OK to make mistakes. ![]()
