Description

With simple text by Clare Foges and colorful illustrations by Al Murphy, this book will have you and your kids giggling. The Wimbledon family keep getting woken up by their dog, Stanley - what could he possibly be up to in the middle of the night?

The combination of Foges and Murphy worked wonders in ‘‘Kitchen Disco’’ and ‘‘Bathroom Boogie’’ follows the same format. While some of the objects appeared to have distinct personalities, some spotlighted objects just kinda danced, or the vocabulary used was more like word soup, which felt like a missed opportunity.

Bathroom Boogie is the zany and hilarious rhyming picture book sequel to Kitchen Disco, with trademark cool artwork from Al Murphy. Without even taking into account the fact that a lot of the bathroom products look high as kites, there is no way a young child would understand what's going on. UPDATE: I've changed my rather harsh initial rating of 2 stars to 4 simply because my daughter loves the book so much. New readers won't know and they will just read a really fun book that will have the family bopping all the way to bedtime.

However, the book is a little too similar to Kitchen Disco, it follows the same format and even the song sounds similar – same tune, different lyrics. Kitchen Disco was selected for BookTrust's 'Time to Read' campaign and there are currently 760,000 copies in print. The combination of Foges and Murphy worked wonders in Kitchen Disco and Bathroom Boogie follows the same format. Al Murphy is a versatile illustrator whose work has appeared in newspapers, advertising and apps, and now children's books.All of the bathroom items start to join in the bathroom boogie making a book that's great fun to read. The children love the bright colours and seeing each item coming to life, they found it amusing to see this and would keep flicking through the book after it being read to see it again.

In this surreal rhyming story, the shiny tiles become a dance floor and the light a sparkling disco ball. Whilst the Kitchen Disco concentrated on the fruit and vegetables getting down, Bathroom Boogie explores what happens with the shampoo and toothpaste when you are not at home. Foges provides an answer to the age old question "Do my toys come to life when I'm gone" but, instead, investigates the goings-on of the bathroom. Bathroom Boogie is the story of what happens in the bathroom when children are at school and adults are at work. It would appear that I may not actually be to blame and that when I am at work all the bathroom items come out for a boogie.A little boy and his sister are surprised to say the least when their babysitter turns out to be a huge, bearded pirate - and he's invited all his friends round for stew! When the children go to school and the adults go to work – the bathroom boogie starts up – and all your favourite bathroom friends come alive!
