PreS-Gr 1—Jackson loves playing outdoors, rolling down hills, and climbing trees. But at the end of the day Mother says, "Go and have a bath now or the Bath Monster will come and get you." And with that invitation, we are introduced to Boyd's deliciously wicked Bath Monster, who slurps up his second favorite food—dirty bathwater. One day Jackson decides to meet his nemesis and determine what the Bath Monster's first favorite food might be. Boyd plays on young readers' imaginations about the dirty bathwater going down the drain in the tub. Pages are filled with animation. Text lines swirl down the pipe in a flowing curve as readers view the large brownish-black monster with gigantic eyes and spiky yellow teeth slurp the water through his special red and white straw. VERDICT Children will shiver and giggle as they relish repeated readings once they are privy to the final joke on Mom.—Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VA
