ScribbleMonster Takes a Bath

ScribbleMonster Takes a Bath contains clever line-art drawings intended to be completed by children ages one and up, thereby introducing young children to the joy of art. Children complete the skeletal illustrations by scribbling over them. The book is also appropriate for older children who will enjoy the story as well as completing the illustrations in greater detail. Written by a professional counselor, the story is about celebrating difference and valuing the qualities that make one special. In the story, ScribbleMonster devises a plan to scare his dad, which involves getting good and dirty. ScribbleMonster is pleased with the outcome of his plan, but is afraid to take a much-needed bath, fearing he will scrub off his unique coloring in the process of getting clean. Activities and age-appropriate questions for discussion and processing are included at the end of the story.
