Literature: The Human Experience Shorter Edition by University Richard Abcarian

In a distinctive oversize package and illustrated with Jo lle Jolivet's signature retro, eye-catching style, Oops follows a family through the streets of Paris as they try to get to the airport for their vacation. Back at their apartment, their house-sitting aunt slips on some soap, setting off a chain reaction of events that create some extreme roadblocks for the family's trip. A movie shoot, a parade, policemen, rampaging bears, aliens, and much more collide in this remarkable new picture book adventure. The book includes a gatefold page at the end that explains in detail the train of chaos on the previous pages. Praise for 365 Penguins
