Illustrated by
Lee Calderon.
When his parents announce that it's bath time, a boy goes in search of tub toys: a rubber duck, a wind-up frog, a beach ball, trucks, blocks, animals--even an egg beater--until at last there is no room left for the young bather. Some of the book's rhymes don't scan, but the digitally rendered illustrations extend the humorous text by showing the boy's imagination at work as he fills the tub.
