Sock Monkey Goes To Hollywood: A Star Is Bathed: 08/19/15

Sock Monkey Goes To Hollywood: A Star Is Bathed by Cece Bell: Sock Monkey doesn't want a bath.

Sock Monkey Goes To Hollywood: A Star Is Bathed by Cece Bell was her debut book. It's the story of a stinky sock monkey whose friends stage an intervention. Sock Monkey can't go to the Awards Ceremony unless he takes a bath.

This book is for anyone who has a kid with a special toy that gets taken everywhere. It can be really tough to wrestle away the favorite toy to get it washed. Here as Sock Monkey is a toy and all his friends are too, it's also a tale of why it's important to bathe, much in the same way as I Don't Want to Take a Bath by Julie Skyes

Yippee!

My sister in law actually used a duplicate version to swap out a clean one for the one that needed washing. That idea worked until the eye of one of the toys got scratched, thus making the two distinguishable from each other.

Four stars
