Maisy loves taking a bath. She prepares the tub with lots of foamy bubbles. She helps duck float carefree in the warm water. But just before she can plop into a tubful of fun, "ding dong," the doorbell rings. It's Tallulah, ready to play tennis! Maisy passes on playtime because it's her bathtime. She runs upstairs to get undressed and jumps into the bubbly bath. The doorbell rings again. Dripping, Maisy answers the door to find Tallulah once more. Maisy says she cannot play because it's her bathtime, but she invites Tallulah to come and play later. Tallulah has a better idea. She runs passed Maisy, undresses, and splashes into the tantalizing tub. Hooray! Maisy and Tallulah found out that bathtime can be playtime.

School Library Journal

PreS-Maisy's fans will not be disappointed by either of these titles. In Bus, a simple concept book, the little mouse proves to be a very responsible driver. At each of the first four stops, she picks up an animal friend. At the fifth, she drops them all off, making sure she doesn't leave anyone behind. While Maisy Takes a Bath, Tallulah, a chicken, impatiently waits for her friend to come out and play. Eventually, she hops right into the tub with Maisy. The protagonist has a charming personality with plenty of sparkle. Both books feature bright colors; clearly defined, recognizable objects; and lots of repetition. Great fun for storytimes and lap sharing.-Susan Marie Pitard, Weezie Library for Children, Nantucket Atheneum, MA Copyright 2000 Cahners Business Information.|
