A hilarious and clever bath-time picture book by humorist, novelist, and TV writer Simon Rich, with illustrations by Tom Toro (How to Potty Train Your Porcupine).


And so begins a hilarious dip into the choppy waters of a nightly ritual that parents and children alike often dread. Filled with soapsuds, rubber duckies, and existential angst, Simon Rich’s debut picture book is a splashy tale of cleanliness—and survival. This irreverent read-aloud treat about facing fear and embracing adventure might just change the way you see bath time (and your bathroom) forever.

Reviews:

“A visual (and comedic) feast for budding smart-alecks.”Patton Oswalt

“Along with offering a bit of bathroom behavior modification, this is, undeniably, storytime gold for young audiences large or small.”―Booklist

“This delightful picture book turns the widespread phenomenon of toddler bathtime fears on its head…The book’s skillfully crafted storyline will appeal to children as well as adults working to avoid meltdowns when little ones have a wash. … A refreshing, amusing approach to overcoming ablutophobia in small children.” ―Kirkus

My review

This is such a cute book and will help you turn the tumultuous bath time into fun time.  The illustrations are so flipping cute.  Instead of focusing on the child and their fears or insecurities at the dreaded bath time, we hear what the tub thinks about being filled with a misbehaving toddler and offers suggestions on how the two can enjoy these moments together.  An enjoyable book for both the toddler and parent.  Give it a try and next you’ll be looking for a book to help get your tot out of the bath and into bed.
