What does it mean to learn from our mistakes? Why does one person cringe at the memory of a past stupidity, while another can shrug off multiple mess-ups and continue merrily down life's treacherous path? Using examples from ages five through sixty-five Alice Kaltman shares her less-than-perfect b haviors to explore these questions. ALICE'S BIG BOOK OF MISTAKES also poses theoretical questions about the nature of mistakes, failures, and regrets by looking at some world-famous idiots and global disasters. Plus, ALICE'S BIG BOOK OF MISTAKES is interactive. There are pages for readers to draw and write about their own mistakes, because let's be honest; aren't we all on a journey to figure out the value of doing the right (or wrong) thing?
ALICE KALTMAN is the author of the story collections Staggerwing and Almost Deadly Almost Good, and the novels The Tantalizing Tale of Grace Minnaugh, Wavehouse, and Dawg Towne. Her fiction has been nominated for Best American Short Stories, Best Small Fictions, and the Pushcart Prize, and her articles on Mental Health and Parenting have appeared nationally. Alice splits her time between Brooklyn and Montauk, NY where she lives with her husband the sculptor Daniel Wiener and Ollie the Wonder Dog.
