Editorial Review

“[T]his tale soaks up the sights, sounds, and senses of the woods while the child’s watchful mother stands nearby. . . . The clever use of terms associated with a traditional bath (“test the water”) makes the story even more relatable. Barton’s words and Henditirto’s luminous artwork combine for a sensuous experience that just might prompt readers to take a quick walk or dip into the woods or a nearby park. An enticing demonstration of nature’s simple healing pleasures.”—Kirkus Reviews
