But I Don't Wanna Take A Bath Book Review and Giveaway


But I Don't Wanna Take A Bath! is the first in A Mike and Tyke Series of children's picture books based on the experiences of the author's children and grandchildren. Mike, his dog, Tyke, and his friend, Bud, splash and play all day in a mud puddle. As the day comes to an end, Bud goes home. Mike and Tyke are reluctant to go inside because they don't "wanna" take a bath!

My Thoughts: As an avid bookworm, I am always eager to review children's book titles and was so glad for the opportunity to review Mildred Pope's first novel. The cover, being brightly colored quickly grabbed my grand-daughters attention.

The twins did somewhat better than the youngest one. Of course, all three agreed with Mike and Tyke about not wanting to go in because they don't "wanna" take a bath either!! That makes this the perfect bath-time book!

Spiky, Slimy, Smooth - Book Review

Soft, gooey, fluffy, prickly—textures are all around us. What clever words will you use to describe the textures pictured in this book?
Jane Brocket's appealing photography and simple, whimsical text give a fresh approach to a topic all young children learn about.


My thoughts: Jane brought a unique way of helping children learn about textures. The pictures are bright, colorful, and attention-grabbing.
