Five Easy Steps??

Nicola Winstanley and John Martz have teamed up to bring us the hilarious How to Give Your Cat a Bath in Five Easy Steps. This book had The Bear and The Bee in stitches!  They asked me to re-read it five times in a row and noticed something different in the illustrations everytime to make them laugh even harder.

Nicola Winstanley has completely captured the absurdity of trying to bathe a cat.  I love the progression of the illustrations from the beginning with a nice organized home to the end where it looks like a tornado blew through.  John Martz clean, simple illustrations are the perfect complement to this silly story. How to Give Your Cat a Bath is a fantastic master text to inspire instructional writing, infused with so much humour!  The step by step instructions paired with the clean illustrations gives new writers an excellent example of what they can do with their own writing. Cat lovers everywhere will really enjoy this fun story.
