“There’s an Elephant in My Bathtub” Blog Book Tour & Giveaway

If you have a child that loves animals, you probably have your own zoo in your house. I know I am finding animals everywhere in my house. Whether they are plush, hard figures or drawings, there is a menagerie of creatures everywhere I look. In the new picture book, There’s an Elephant in my Bathtub by Connie Bowman, a Dad finds and rounds up all kinds of animals and escorts them to his son’s room.

Later, when the son returns from school, he finds that his dad has gathered all his animals together for a safari party in his room. This is a delightful book that will have kids grinning from ear to ear as they see a gorilla on the kitchen counter and a bear eating the last of the breakfast cereal in the pantry.  The illustrator of this book is Kelly O’Neill.

You can follow Connie Bowman on Twitter.  You can purchase the book on Amazon, Barnes and Noble or IndieBound.
