(4) PS Harper Growing Tree series. Illustrated by Fumi Kosaka. A dirty toddler hops into a bubble bath and emerges clean in this playful rhyming text. Although some rhymes are self-conscious ("Bubbles, bubbles, in the tubbles") and some oblique ("Dry the tootsies, dry the mop. / Squeaky clean from tush to top"), the thickly textured pastel-style illustrations fill the page with strong organic forms, and the familiar routine will resonate.
