Messes and kids, kids and baths; they go together! Emmy can definitely relate to this book:
The Treasure Bath by Dan Andreasen
A little boy is baking with his mother. He gets a little messy during the process, and while the cake is baking, needs to take a bath. He has some adventures under the sea without leaving the bathtub! This is a wordless picture book that Ed and Emmy found this book at the library, and Emmy loves it! Right now it is the most requested book at our house. (Just a note of caution: the little boy is shown with a bare bottom in the bath…while Emmy thinks nothing of this because she is two, I never would have read this book to a classroom full of second graders! They would have laughed way too much!)
This is a great story, also wordless! The illustrations are incredible, and there’s a surprise ending! (Shh…I’m not going to spoil it for you!)
For more information on these two books, watch my first vlog below:
Some things I learned about vlogging:
1. The living room is a bad location for recording a video. Yikes, that glare!
2. There’s a reason everyone uses YouTube. It’s fast, it’s free, and it’s easy. I uploaded this same video to Vimeo, and 24 hours later it’s still “processing.”
3. Never allow your husband to edit your video. He kept the beginning part in, and if I hadn’t gotten to him in time, would’ve included the tushie shot of me at the end!

I love the bath book! We are going to have to check that one out. Thanks for the recommendation. 🙂
First of all, I love the name of your blog! So glad to meet you! Loved your book ideas.
Thank you for the recommendations!I already have Treasure Bath on hold at the library because I know my son will love it!Have a great weekend!
I like the tushie shot!
Thanks for the recommendations! They look great!
I can see the teacher in you! I bet you are a great one. By the way, congratulations on the win. I read about it on Just Breathe!
Your first Vlog was a great vlog! Good job! I like Ed's comment about your tushie… You have such a wonderful voice. I think you should do children's audio books. And ironically, you were reviewing wordless books! We will check those out (especially Tuesday, that one looks great). You always have great recommendations.
Yay, a vlog and a photo to go with the book!You look great, good job with the vlog! Nice to see and hear you in real life! 🙂
What a neat meme! And I could imagine that a "bare tushie" would be much cause for amusement in any grade school class!
I am sooo proud and honored that you have made your first vlog!I loved seeing your girls and hearing them talk with you. So special! I liked your ideas of going through the book and emphasizing different things.Thank goodness for editing huh? It's been a fun challenge for me.
Is Ed by any chance your husband:) aka "I like the tushie shot."
