Review # 1 was written on 2018-12-13 00:00:00 Jared Nagel King Bidgood's in the Bathtub by Audrey Wood is also characterized by simple clean vocabulary but has some of the most miraculous and intricate drawings I've ever seen, by Don Wood. I love the premise (of refusing to get out of a bath) and I can still stair for hours at the detail in those amazing full page illustrations. (It helps that the artist's model for the king, Harry Bidgood, was a family friend.)

Review # 2 was written on 2019-06-04 00:00:00 Lisa Carver I adore this silly story. It is whimsical, funny and unexpected. The children loved it. They laughed the whole way through. This is a beginning rhyming story of a King who won't get out of the bathtub. The page asked for help to get him out. People try and plan an event to get him out of the tub, like the Queen who wants to do lunch. The King just has the person do the event in the tub. The page set out lunch in the tub and the Queen got in the tub with her dress. The kids giggled and giggled. The king does battle and has a masquerade ball in the tub. It's the page who had the answer all along. I love the artwork of this story. It's lovely with such a funny subject matter. Both children gave this 5 stars. The niece thought this hilarious and silly. The nephew thought this was one of the best books ever (no robots or monsters). They both laughed at the king being naked with all these people in the tub with him. This is a hit in our house.
