Bubble Gum Bison Needs a Bath

Bath time becomes a comic chain of complications for Bubble Gum Bison, who would rather stay on the playground than step into the tub. After a window escape and a muddy, sticky encounter with feathers, she changes her mind—only to find there’s no water. The missing supply introduces Blue Bison’s habit of ramming into things as a possible cause, and the story’s central joke turns toward solving an unusual practical problem. Scott Rothman’s picture book pairs bath-time resistance with physical mishaps and a problem-solving theme; Pete Oswald is identified as the illustrator.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy humorous picture books
  • Young readers interested in bath-time antics and silly mishaps
  • Families looking for a story that introduces unconventional problem-solving

Book overview

Bubble Gum Bison will do just about anything to avoid taking a bath in this humorous picture book from the #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator Pete Oswald.

Bubble Gum Bison, Blue Bison's little sister, is having too much fun with her playground associates to take time out for a bath. In fact, she escapes through the bathroom window to avoid the inevitable. But when Bubble Gum Bison slips in the mud, gets covered with bubble gum, and has bird feathers stuck all-over her, she finally decides its time for a bath. But, what's this? There's no water! Could Blue Bison's ramming habit have anything to do with the hole in the water tank?

A wildly hilarious story with a subtle message that an unconventional solution can solve an unconventional problem. Bubble Gum Bison Needs a Bath is the perfect companion to Scott Rothman and Pete Oswald's previous collaboration Blue Bison Needs a Haircut, praised by Kirkus Reviews as "This one puts the ha in 'haircut'--be prepared to snuggle up and laugh often."
