Did you know that Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin by mistake when he forgot to tidy his lab? Or that an 11-year-old child accidentally invented the ice lolly? What about the chemist whose fiery failure led to the very first matchstick? Or the chef whose attempt to annoy a fussy customer resulted in the creation of crisps? From building blunders to musical mishaps, mouthwash to ice-cream cones, post-it notes to fireworks, there are all sorts of incredible mistakes that you’ve probably never heard of – and some of them have shaped life as you know it! Maybe one day you will make an incredible mistake too. This book shows children how important lessons can be learned from failure and teaches them not to be afraid of making mistakes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
