OH NO! is the fifth book in the acetate series by Patrick George. 13 spreads each with a clear acetate sheet between them. Turn the acetate page and 'oh no!' A boy's kite is stuck up a tree and the boy is up a ladder to get it. Can you guess what will happen next? Turn the acetate page and 'oh no' he's fallen off! An owl is up in a tree and he hasn't noticed the cat licking his lips down below. Turn the acetate page and 'oh no' the cat has got the owl. Some children are looking at a gorilla in his cage at the zoo. Have they noticed the monkey dangling some keys? Turn the page and ...'oh no'! Children will laugh with delight as they watch the situation transform before their very eyes. By flipping the clear transparent page back and forth, they can create the action repeatedly. This is a light-hearted book without words, designed to promote discussion and vocabulary building. It is a simple yet deceptively clever and fun book!
