Welcome to Billy's story, where one simple mistake becomes an opportunity to learn empathy, accountability, and the power of a sincere apology.
When Billy the goose accidentally hurts a classmate's feelings, Counselor Dan introduces the Oops/Ouch strategy-a simple, memorable tool that helps children understand the impact of their actions, take responsibility, and make things right. As Billy navigates the challenges of a new school, he discovers that everyone makes mistakes, and that kindness, empathy, and meaningful apologies help friendships grow stronger.
Perfect for classrooms, libraries, counseling offices, and home bookshelves, OOPS! encourages meaningful conversations about social-emotional learning, conflict resolution, perspective-taking, and emotional regulation.
Ideal for:
- Children ages 4-8
- Parents and caregivers
- Teachers and school librarians
- School counselors, therapists, and psychologists
- Social-emotional learning (SEL) classrooms
- Character education and anti-bullying programs
Part of the award-winning A World of Difference series, OOPS! can be enjoyed as a standalone story or alongside OUCH! More Than a Word and OH NO! More Than a Bystander. Together, the series helps children build empathy, strengthen relationships, and celebrate the strengths that make every person unique.
Written by Katherine Lockwood-a therapist, student adjustment counselor, and disability advocate-OOPS! reflects her commitment to creating authentic, inclusive stories that help children feel seen while fostering empathy, kindness, and belonging for all.
