If you are looking for a fun picture book, How Do You Take A Bath?, really fits the bill. You will smile and laugh as you follow elephants, pigs, monkeys, hippos, and more in this charming read-aloud from veteran author Kate McMullan. Perfect for fans of Five Little Monkeys Jump in the Bath, How Do You Take A Bath? is a fun and educational picture book that brings together adorable baby animals and bath time.
How does a pig take a bath? It sinks in the mud! What about a chicken? It thrashes about in dust! And a cat? Why, it licks itself clean, of course! Sydney Hanson’s adorable illustrations toggle neatly between animals in nature grooming themselves and humorous depictions of children attempting the animals’ bathing tactics. By the end of the book, the child finally makes his way to the bathtub, no mud baths or lick baths about it!
Check out my video review of this book:
The book’s fun, rhyming prose makes it perfect for storytime and provides the facts to back it up for science discussions. With How Do You Take a Bath?, teachers looking for a classroom read-aloud and parents searching for a new book about bath time need look no further!

I am very sorry but there was a blog/server glitch and the code for the giveaway got deleted and all info on the giveaway was lost. It then copied the giveaway for the cookbook here and we had to remove that. So, we have had to start this giveaway over. We did extend it so that everyone can get all their entries in. So sorry, this is the first time this has happened and hopefully, the last.

Why does the Giveaway Entry Box say this is to try to win the
“Grace + Soul & Mother Wit” Spiral Bound Cookbook?
I want to be sure I am entering for the
HOW DO YOU TAKE A BATH BOOK giveaway, for our grandson.
Help?
Because the blog server had a glitch and somehow it caused this giveaway code to be erased and the wrong giveaway code to be substituted. I am fixing it now.

Carolyn,
Thank you so much for looking into this as soon as you realized what happened and for fixing it for all of us! This looks like such a cute book for our grandson and it’s fun to even have a chance.
Sorry that happened, I’m sure it must have been frustrating for you, so thank you again!
You are very welcome and thanks for your patience. This week or so there have been so many glitches on the Internet in general.

Also the board book
BABY BE KIND, .. Ashton is already exceptionally kind especially for his age and people comment on it all the time, but it’s one of his Mama’s top priorities to keep that deeply instilled in him and she loves when he gets books like that to help inspire him even more.
I also like The Boy Who Went To Mars.
