Book Reviews of Maisy Takes a Bath

Book Review: Not for All Maisy Fans
Summary: 2 Stars

I got this book for my daughter because she has enjoyed the other Maisy books. The bright colors and graphic drawings seem to really get her attention.

However, I was kind of weirded out by the storyline for this one. I am not super conservative or anything but the fact that Maisie answered the door in her towel bothered me. Plus, Maisy answers the door each time, not her mom or dad. Then, her friend runs upstairs and jumps in the tub with her. I just feel like this book wasn't very thought out and may reinforce reckless behavior.

I understand the difference between a children's book and real life but the Maisy books' express mission is to teach kids about the world around them and how to behave in it, and I just think this book fails on that point. But we have really enjoyed the other Maisy books and will buy other ones. This one just made me a little uncomfortable.

Summary of Maisy Takes a Bath

In this brand-new adventure familiar to children who watch Maisy on Nick Jr., Maisy and her friends act out the lively adventures young children have-or dream of having-every day. In MAISY TAKES A BATH, Tallulah doesn't want Maisy to take a bubble bath just now. She wants her to come out and play instead. What will Maisy's friend do next? Here's another very good reason to be crazy for Maisy!

It's one of those unwritten laws of life: run a bath, and the doorbell rings. For Maisy the mouse, bathtime looks like it may never happen. She runs the water, puts in some bubbles, drops in her rubber ducky, and... "Ding, Dong!" Maisy's friend Tallulah the duck is at the door, tennis racket in wing, wanting to play. Maisy asks her to come back later. But as soon as Maisy undresses and pops in her bubbly bath, the doorbell rings for a second time. It's Tallulah, coming to play again! And this time, it looks like Tallulah has a sure-fire plan to guarantee playtime with her friend. Soon, both Maisy and Tallulah are splashing and playing in the bath together.

Maisy is a big favorite among young readers everywhere. Lucy Cousins's sweet stories of this endearing mouse and her friends celebrate the simple pleasures of life: Maisy Goes to Bed and Happy Birthday Maisy. Thick black lettering and boldly outlined, brightly colored illustrations make this a tremendously appealing tale for early readers. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter
