Summary/Back cover:
Bobo's mother has no trouble getting her little chimp to take a bath. "Yes!" he shouts. But when it's bedtime for Bobo, he responds with a definite "No." In this tale of two words, it takes some patient animal friends and plenty of splashing to alter one contrary little chimp's attitude. By popular demand, Jez Alborough brings back the beloved Bobo in a charming bedtime story for every preschooler who loves chimps — and every parent who could use a welcome break from "No!"
Review:
A beautiful picture book about a young chimp called Bobo going through his night time routine. Like all youngsters, Bobo loves the bath but when it's time for bed his mother receives a resounding NO! With a few tantrums and the help of his friends Bobo finally succumbs to sleep and is tucked in for the night. There are very few words in this book which some adults find challenging as it means there is no prescribed storyline. But the illustrations are wonderful and discussions with your children will soon show they are very familiar with the concept in the book.
3.5/5
