Book Description

4 and upP and upQuestions and Answers Storybook

Why is soap so slippery? Where does it go when I flush? Why do my fingers get all wrinkly in the tub? Bathtime is a time full of questions for children. Here are satisfying answers to these questions, and explanations of the everyday mysteries of splashy bathtime science. Follow the familiar routine through the pages, and--surprise!--it's a picture book, too.


Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 1?A curious little boy's 12 bathroom questions, such as "How can hot and cold water run out of the same tap?," "Why do I have to brush my teeth?," and "Where does it go when I flush?," are answered simply in this elementary-level nonfiction title. Full- and double-page cartoons exaggerate points made in the text in order to make them clear to children. Included on the last page are four more bits of bath trivia. An appealing addition that could be used in classrooms for units on water or health.?Sandra Welzenbach, Memorial High School, San Antonio, TX

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book for curious pre-schoolers, May 13, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Why Is Soap So Slippery?: And Other Bathtime Questions (Questions and Answers Storybook) (Paperback)
This is a great book for curious pre-schoolers. My three year old and especially my four and a half year old love this book. It answers basic questions very well, with good illustrations and simple, but very correct explainations.
