"Clean Enough" by Kevin Henkes
This was a simple book about a boy who takes a bath and the things he does while in the tub. I thought this book was good but it didn't really catch my attention very much. I can see how children may enjoy it because they probably goof off in the bathtub too, but I saw little educational value in it. The pictures were not very vivid, but that is probably because it was published in 1982. As one of Henke's earlier books I can see how his style has changed a lot as he has grown as an author. His early writing is very simple and appeals to younger readers. Overall this was an OK book, but probably not one I would recommend to others.
