Description

'Bruno, get in the bath!' It's bathtime, but there's a whale in the tub and Bruno can't get in! No one in his family believes him and Bruno keeps being sent back to the bathroom until, at last, Bruno and the whale work out a very splashy solution. A wonderful story that humorously explores bathtime and a playful celebration of a child's imagination.
