국내에서는 "아름다운 실수"라는 제목으로 번역서가 출간된 명작 그림책입니다.

뉴욕 타임스는 이 책에 대해, “창조적인 아이들(그리고 어른들)이 배워야 할, 무언가를 때때로 엉망으로 만드는 것의 중요성에 관한 책이다.”라고 평했어요.

실수로 떨어트린 검은 잉크방울 하나가 때로는 새로운 영감을 불러 일으키기도 하고, 잘못 그린 그림은 상상력과 아이디어가 덧대어 지면서 완전히 새로운 창작물로 재탄생하기도 합니다.

하얀 여백 위에 사람 모습을 그리려다가 실수로 한쪽 눈을 크게 그렸어요. 이 조그만 실수로 부터 놀라운 창작세계로 독자들을 이끄는 여정이 시작됩니다.

유명한 책 Zoom과 Beautiful Oops!가 하나로 합쳐진 듯한 이 책은 작은 얼룩, 점, 알 수 없는 물체를 자신의 작품에 접목시키고, 기이하고 예기치 못한 방식으로 변형시켜 독자가 작품 속을 함께 여행하게 합니다.

실수가 많을 수밖에 없는 아이들에게 권하는 책, 그리고 완벽주의에 집착하는 아이에게는 특히나 큰 도움이 되는 책입니다.

Book Description
Zoom meets Beautiful Oops! in this memorable picture book debut about the creative process, and the way in which "mistakes" can blossom into inspiration

One eye was bigger than the other. That was a mistake.
The weird frog-cat-cow thing? It made an excellent bush.
And the inky smudges… they look as if they were always meant to be leaves floating gently across the sky.

As one artist incorporates accidental splotches, spots, and misshapen things into her art, she transforms her piece in quirky and unexpected ways, taking readers on a journey through her process. Told in minimal, playful text, this story shows readers that even the biggest “mistakes” can be the source of the brightest ideas—and that, at the end of the day, we are all works in progress, too.

Fans of Peter Reynolds’s Ish and Patrick McDonnell’s A Perfectly Messed-Up Story will love the funny, poignant, completely unique storytelling of The Book of Mistakes. And, like Oh, The Places You’ll Go!, it makes the perfect graduation gift, encouraging readers to have a positive outlook as they learn to face life’s obstacles.



Kirkus *Starred Review*
"A striking debut picture book celebrates the creative process. Careful looking will be rewarded with surprising, often funny details in the art, which invites poring over...It would be a grave mistake not to pick up this picture book."


School Library Journal
It starts with a mistake, but page by page, one slightly too large eye, a wonky elbow, and feet a little too far off the ground transform and combine into a larger picture - one that not only is functional but also works perfectly. Illustrations rendered in ink, colored pencil, and watercolor are the focal point. They start small - just a circle, a few lines, a dot on the page, a subtle bit of color here and there - but they slowly grow, flowing across one page and onto the next before reverting back to a smaller image that begins to slowly grow again. Each page shows one small glimpse of the final picture, inviting readers to turn the page to see the rest. The simple text draws readers' attention to the illustrations, and thorough examination is rewarded with playful little details. This is a story about how mistakes can change us all for the better if we are brave enough to face them and march ahead. Readers will love following along as the small spots and smudges on each page change the work in fun and unexpected ways, and even younger readers will finish with fresh optimism and a new idea of what mistakes may become. VERDICT Children, especially fledgling artists, will want to pore over this volume one-on-one. A must-have for every library. - Maggie Mason Smith, Clemson University, SC
