A voluptuous book."- School Library Journal, Grade 1-4 In this humorously original tale, various members of the Court, all clothed in elaborate Elizabethan dress, try to dislodge the King from his bubbly tub. Instead they are drawn into it with him, to "do battle" with toy ships and warriors; to eat a lavish feast; to fish and to dance. It is the young page who finds a solution, finally, by pulling the plug. Much of the delight is in Don Wood's meticulous oil paintings, which juxtapose the starched, overdressed, "shocked" demeanor of the Court with the King's twinkling, sensual, even lascivious manner. Minute details in the paintings emphasize this contrast; the red-haired naked King frolics while the fully-clothed courtiers emerge dripping from the bath with literally all their starch taken out. A voluptuous book whose rich range of colors and tones reflect the passing hours of the day. As in the Woods' Napping House (HBJ, 1984), the few simple words of text per large, well-designed page invite storytellingbut keep the group very small, so the children can be close enough to pore over the brilliant, robust illustrations.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.

    Fabulous story, average condition

    Purchased the book used but in good condition. There were library stickers fixed to the binding that are difficult to remove, and the name of the previous owner is written inside. I don't mind, I just would have liked to know those details. The story is AMAZING, a favorite of our family, and a must-read during bath time, as well as bedtime.

    A must for every child’s library!

    A true gem fondly remembered from my children’s childhoods, now being cherished by my grandchildren. The story is fun with a touch of mystery, loads of fun, and a terrific and funny resolution; but the crowning achievement of this book are the fantastic illustrations! Every book by the terrifically talented Audrey and Don wood is gorgeous, but this really sets the bar!

    Fun storybook

    My kids loved this book and now my granddaughter does too. Detailed drawings, silly story that nevertheless resonates with youngsters because they hate getting out of the bathtub, just like King Bidgood.
