After crossing raging rivers and tromping through the jungle, Naughty Ninja returns to his secret ninja training camp for lunch. But when he gets inside, his parents tell him he needs a bath. Before Naughty Ninja gets in the tub, he notices poisonous flies and an angry alligator circling his dad, who doesn’t even seem to know he’s in trouble. Good thing Naughty Ninja is around to save the day!

Amid sudsy fun, a boy’s imaginary ninja life and his everyday world collide in the ultimate bath time adventure.

Review
“Good fun for all little ninjas and their parents.” —Kirkus Reviews

“This book does a wonderful job of demonstrating how a child’s imagination can turn any ordinary experience into a rollicking adventure.” —School Library Journal

From the Publisher
Some kids just don’t like taking baths. But if you think you’ve seen the most elaborate reason for not getting in a tub, think again. Because odds are, Naughty Ninja has it beat! As soon as Will ties a shirt around his head like a mask (complete with tag sticking out), he envisions himself as a ninja, ready to protect anyone who needs it.

When his father tries to get him in the tub, Will’s imagination turns bath toys into interlopers he needs to protect his father from. But when Will’s dad ends up flying into the water instead of him, and a giant wave of bubbles carries them both through the house, you may just be surprised by his parents’ reaction. Splashtastic action and a nice father-son dynamic are sure to leave your little ninjas wanting some bath-time silliness of their own—or at least another lively story!

About the Author
My list of the greatest things in life is pretty short: Watching a 1-year-old walk. Tickling a 2-year-old. Listening to a 3-year-old talk about his day. Seeing my own little kids blossom into big kids.

Somewhere there's a parent and a child cuddled up together reading a book, maybe even under the covers by flashlight. And there is giggling and page-turning and flailing limbs and joy and snot and probably some farting. And how great is that?

It's the greatest.
