My second point of concern is just for this poor little fella sliding down the stair stringer. I don’t want my girl thinking she can share a bath with sub-Saharan animals or even domesticated one’s (guinea pigs, Pomeranians etc.). Aside from the dangers of the co-mingling of creatures with such wildly varying temperaments, hygiene is a massive concern here. The problem is, the participants are an Elephant, a Hippopotamus, a Moose and a Lion. The wishful thinking that is, that reading to your child about the routine of preparing for bed might actually make them more susceptible to sleep, *lol*, the naivety.Īt one stage, “everybody goes below to take a bath in one big tub, with soap all over-SCRUB SCRUB SCRUB!”. The rhymes are smooth in this English edition and I found it humorous. If you drag it out like you’re reading to a lobotomy patient or, you know, a newborn, you could probably wring out a couple of minutes. Tell me Children’s books aren’t where the money’s at!


24.96 seconds! I timed it, that’s approximately how long it takes an adult to get through this book.
