Nayu's thoughts
I can count on Debi's books cheering me
up. Alfie is a cute bunny, and absolutely hilarious in the bath. His
imagination is huge, and I loved how the pictures changed depending
who or what he was pretending to be. I can see readers wanting to
re-enact certain scenes – although I hope they don't get too much
water on the floor like
Alfie does. Bath time can be such fun, and can be carried out on land
or even in a swimming pool (if there's space to muck about).Alfie's
father is on hand for mopping up duties, which shows that reader
that having an adult around isn't just about safety – they can join
in on the fun too.

Suggested read
For another bath themed story check out Pi-Rat! by Maxine Lee which I've read but somehow not reviewed (it was over a year ago) (Children's, Picture book, 10/10E)
