Praise for the hardcover version of Time for a Bath
"The charming, soft-focus illustrations are perfect for the audience, and the simple and rhythmic text invites participation. A nice choice for preschool read-alouds or one-on-one sharing." --School Library Journal

"Walker's soft tones and engaging full-page spreads spill over with gentleness . . . the familiar pattern and loving characters still charm. Will the book convince a child that bathtime is a happy time? It won't take many reads to get them to want to try and find out." --KirkusReviews.com
