Amazon Description
Then Grandpa shows Charlotte his invisible mistakecase . . . and she doesn’t believe her eyes! It’s a place where he keeps reminders of all the mistakes he never wants to repeat. Could Charlotte possibly have a mistakecase of her very own?
One Potato Review
Here is a beautiful concept - someplace we can carry our regrets with their becoming too burdensome - and it is fully (and comically) imagined. This should come as no surprise. Harper is one of the great children’s authors and illustrators working today, and will you find her picture books in your larger bookstores? You will not. There isn’t a lazy page here: one hilariously diagrammed interlude involving Charlotte’s pie-stealing (and forever regretful) grandfather deserves it’s own book. We should be so lucky.
