Oopsee - Sue Trinacty

Challenges will always exist for both the young and the old. What truly matters is learning from our mistakes and taking responsibility for our actions by applying thoughtfulness, respect, and creativity to solve problems. Oopsee is a wonderful children's book written and illustrated by two retired teachers from Tucson, Arizona, Sue Trinacty and Heidi Brant, who believe the idea of being responsible for one's actions applies to everyone at any age. We all have Oopsee moments, both children and adults. The book is organized into chapters that show a progression of ages, from preschoolers to retired women. A variety of situations are highlighted through the artwork. Pay attention to the visual details that enhance each story. Making mistakes is an essential part of the learning process. A young child can also handle a simple Oopsee moment with support from adults, which is different from adult interference. The common thread in this book is, What are YOU going to do about this? Every child and adult will love reading this book. nn nn
