Reviews

"Pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations show an eye for detail; a plethora of humorous bath products preceding the title page include tusk whitener, antibacterial hoof wash, and a generous tube of elbow grease. The procedural text keeps the pages turning and contrasts nicely with the winsome illustrations. Youngsters will enjoy this lighthearted tale, especially the very last step: 'Throw in the towel and SNUGGLE!'" --School Library Journal

"It's an adorable bath time adventure, starring an expressive hairy giant and a sweet sprite of a child, who smartly wears a raincoat throughout. Share as a laugh-out-loud warm-up to any kid's own scrub-a-dub routine." --Booklist

"It's a madcap story of pet care with sweetness at its core." --Publishers Weekly

"Robinson, in what is her first book for children, strikes just the right 'in on the joke' tone." --The New York Times on 'What To Do If An Elephant Stands On Your Foot'

"When the ending suggests that the story is starting over, listeners will be happy to hear it again.?" --Kirkus Reviews on 'What To Do If An Elephant Stands On Your Foot'
