David is a very creative and brave child, that is bold enough to turn his bathtube into a swimming resort - something between a lake and a pool. Kindly supervised by his patient mother, he is trying to use his swimming knowledge and his imagination from treasure hunting adventures in order to have a great swimming time.
David´s Bathtime Adventure by multi-awarded children book author and teacher Sue Wickstead offers to preschool and first grade children - 4 to 8 years - a beautiful story, with an adventurous taste and maybe some bathtime ideas too. As the mother of an equally adventurous child I was kind of jealous of the mother in the story, so patient with her son while water was overboarding the bathroom. I suppose parents should learn something from this book as well.
What I particularly loved it about the book - and my book lover son as well - was the story in itself, which has its own autonomy and surprised, as well as elements of fun. The beautiful colourful illustrations by Jo Anne Davies add both elements of reality and dream to this story, completing smoothly the story, with bath time graphics that can give some inspiration as well.
In addition, David´s Bathtime Adventure can be also used for both reading and English learning aims. The vocabulary is refined and rich enough to improve the reading and understanding knowledge, A recommended bedtime read, or weekend read.
