Description

The puffin is so angry that he accidentally kicks the egg. The crack in the egg gets bigger and bigger until suddenly there is a hole. He peeps through the hole and sees that the egg has eyes!

Uh-oh! tells the story of a wayward young puffin who has a series of misadventures when he is left in charge of his baby brother’s egg. Translated into Yiddish by Arun Viswanath, this charming metaphor for a child learning to accept a younger sibling will delight readers young and old.
