I don't think I ever quite got the "oops" bit; it never really made my children laugh, nor did it seem to add anything to the book or learning about colors. Easy, quick read with cute illustrations. ( )Very simple. Evie likes pulling it out for us to read all the time. We routinely dress ourselves wrong in this house as a way to cajole the kids into dressing properly (hey, whatever works, right?), so this book was right up our alley when the nieces were younger. Every page has every animal putting on a different type of clothes correctly - except the turkey. Oops. Eventually he's correctly dressed (purple socks!) - just in time to jump in a pool. Oops! Hysteria for the toddler crowd. At 5 and 2.5, the nieces are rapidly outgrowing this book, but I love it so much still that I'm reluctant to give it away just yet. A wonderful little book for toddlers and also for the learning disabled. Not only is the dialogue very brief, but the portrayal of a turkey who cannot dress himself properly according to common sense or general social rules hits a chord with those who have trouble assessing social relationships. To toddlers, it's just funny and cute to see a turkey who can't figure out that his shoes go on his feet and that when jumping in the pool he shouldn't be fully dressed in street clothes. Another very funny Boynton board book for toddlers and preschoolers. Our little ones thought the silly turkey was hilarious, as he makes one mistake after another while getting dressed. Simple clear drawings are great for the youngest children. Our copy has been well loved, the corners chewed and mended with tape. A winner! no reviews | add a review
