What is Beetle in the bathroom about?

When a child opens the bathroom door, a surprising crowd of insects is inside. Ladybirds ski down the bath, ants skate across the basin, and a woodlouse waves hello. A beetle sings in the shower, while a caterpillar washes its hair with shampoo. With every page, another minibeast appears, turning an ordinary bathroom into a lively playground. Brian Moses’s bouncy rhymes and Sonia Holleyman’s bright, playful illustrations create a funny, energetic picture book for sharing aloud.
