Text and Images from Bathtub Safari
Bathtime is Jack’s favourite part of the day.
‘I’ll be back in a few moments,’ says his mom.
‘Make sure to clean behind your ears.’
There’s a SWOOSH. And a swish of a tale.
And then…
Jack’s bathtub safari begins!
Look at what’s coming!
There’s a twist and a turn…
Something’s growing…
It’s a…
TOOOT!
There’s a rumble!
It’s going up UP UP and…
SPLASH!
There’s a SPLOSH.
Something bubbles.
It’s time to…
AAAAAAH!
But something’s lurking in the background…
ROAR!
‘
Time to get out. I hope you’re clean and ready for bed.’
