Fail-a-bration
Checking Availibility...Description
New York Times bestselling duo Brad and Kristi Montague are throwing a big party to celebrate failures, in this fun and affirming book that finds the joy in trying and learning, even if you don't succeed
You are cordially invited to a giant fail-a-bration party! Bring with you the cake that came out lopsided, the spelling test mistakes, or the plant that died.

So if you missed the goal during that soccer game or burned the cookies, put on a party hat and join the fail-a-bration, to let the fail fires light the way to success!

Reviews
"The creators set a light, festive tone that carries through the celebratory text and illustrations . . . intricately sketched and collaged illustrations make use of creative enhancements like string, icing, cookies, double stick tape, and more, and offer jubilant fails--a ridiculous attempt at icing a cake, forexample. The festive images and bright palette underscore the bouncy rhyming text, yielding a lighthearted message that everyone sometimes needs . . . With a celebratory tone and inclusive message, librarians and teachers will be planning a lot of Fail-A-Brations for their young learners." --School LIbrary Journal
