<\/p>\n

Our first book, Something Smells<\/a> by Blake Liliane Hellman and illustrated by Steven Henry, was a mystery! Elliot wakes up to a horrible smell. His mom says it’s time for his bath–but there’s no time for a bath, not when there are horrible smells about! Will Elliot ever solve this mystery?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In A Whale in the Bathtub<\/a> by Kylie Westaway and illustrated by Tom Jellett, Bruno insists that he can’t take a bath right now because there’s a whale in there hogging the tub. It’s a rather rude and obnoxious whale, too. Even worse, his family won’t help–they think he’s making the whole thing up! How will he get rid of this whale so he can finally take a bath?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Shinsuke Yoshitake’s book Still Stuck<\/a>, translated from the original Japanese, is about a kid getting ready for the bath and insisting on undressing all by himself, but he gets stuck. He wonders, what would happen if he couldn’t get out… and stayed stuck in his shirt… FOREVER?<\/p>\n

One little piggy was taking a bath
\nThe water was splashing and the bubbles were rising
\nWhen another little piggy came to join the fun!<\/p>\n

Two little piggies were taking a bath…<\/p>\n

(Continue til you get to five pigs)<\/p>\n

The bathtub is full. The piggies are clean.
\nAnd the slippery little piggies get out of the bath!<\/p>\n

Five Little Speckled Frogs<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Five little speckled frogs
\nSitting on a speckled log
\nEating a most delicious fly — Yum, Yum!
\nOne jumped into the pool
\nWhere it was nice and cool
\nThen there were four little speckled frogs!<\/p>\n

(keep singing, removing one at a time until there are none left)<\/p>\n
