This is supposed to be a book about all the different things moose can do, like leaping and jumping and being really tall. But maybe Whoopsie isn’t the right moose for the job. You might want to pick a different moose for this book. Maybe instead we can do a book about falling down a lot? Yeah! Whoopsie would be great at that.This hilarious book about a clumsy moose shows that sometimes being a little different can make one great story.

4.0 out of 5 stars A book about moose featuring a clumsy moose
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2018
From the author of  This Is a Taco! , and featuring a cameo by Taco, comes this book about a clumsy moose. Whoopsie is known by that name because of his tendency to accidents. Like Taco, this is a self-aware book where Whoopsie knows he is starring in, and messing up, a book. Along the way there is real information about moose and a lot of fun for the younger set.

I received a copy for review from the publisher, but will likely give a copy as a gift.

5.0 out of 5 stars Be you... celebrate you
Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2018
From the author of "This Is a Taco" comes another delightful book that kids will love. The book starts out with an apology from humiliated Moose:

"Sorry I crashed into your book. Let me find the missing "O", and I'll get out of your way."

Moose feels embarrassed for causing the mishap and from his next statement you can tell his self-confidence is at an all-time low and he just wants to disappear into the woods.

"I'm not sure I'm the best moose for the job. I fall down a lot. That's why everyone calls me "Whoopsie."

The book starts out by highlighting accurate facts concerning moose. Moose are tall, they can run fast and leap high but poor Whoopsie knows that he can't accomplish any of those things well. He is clumsy and awkward and try as he might he just can't be fit into those molds and he feels downhearted and that he is a failure.

After a series of missteps Moose has a Eureka moment! Wow! He might just create a story about him falling down a lot. That would be a hit for sure. He would be telling HIS moose story from a different point of view and he would let others know that it is alright to be unique from the others. He learns to accept his shortcomings and learns to embrace his idiosyncrasies. This is a wonderful story about being diverse and mostly about being staying true to yourself. I highly recommend this book.

I bought this book for my Granddaughter who is 3. It's cute but is what I call "busy" with text and illustrations. May be a better choice for an older child.

5.0 out of 5 stars the charm of clumsiness
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2019
This is Whoopsie, a moose who finds himself falling down a lot. He doesn’t think much of himself. He thinks he’s just clumsy and makes more trouble for others than he’s worth. But his friend Bird knows the truth, that he has value just as himself.

With cleverness, charm, and a compelling message, author Andrew Cangelose and illustrator Josh Shipley have put together another adorable picture book in the vein of This is a Taco! Again, they find a way to teach children (and remind me and other adults) that we don’t have to be perfect to be loved.

This Is a Whoopsie! is filled with fetching illustrations and delightful characters as well as a funny, memorable story that is a great reminder for kids of all ages that we all have something special to offer the world, the perfect lesson for readers of picture books. Keep an eye on this series. It just keeps getting better.

Galleys for This Is a Whoopsie! were provided by Diamond Book Distributors through NetGalley, with many thanks.
