Publisher Description
Small Elephant likes water . . . but not when it’s in a bath.
Small Elephant’s mommy tries to make the bath more fun with toys and bubbles, but he is not fooled.
He is too busy to take a bath. He has said no many times. He is getting very cross.
And then he disappears! (Elephants who cannot be found cannot take baths.)
But Small Elephant’s daddy has a way to make the bath fun. He may look silly doing it—but it just might work!
With spare text and sprightly illustrations, Tatyana Feeney, three-time author of gently funny books for the youngest readers, takes on another very important toddler topic—bathtime!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In a companion to Small Bunny's Blue Blanket and its sequels, Feeney continues to work her way through common childhood dilemmas, introducing strong-willed Small Elephant, who loves the water except at bathtime. As Small Elephant's mother attempts to get him into the tub, tantrums and hiding follow; it's only when Daddy climbs into the tub, pajamas and all, that Small Elephant is amused enough to give it a try. Accented with bright red and blue, Feeney's artwork is both economical and bursting with emotion; the only downside is that Small Elephant's change of heart comes a bit too quickly to be fully believed. Ages 2 5.
