Another super durable book, lasting years - YEARS - in the bedtime reading rotation. A little kid's 1 year = an adult's decades. So this is really remarkable.
I hate it.
Edited to add: Omg. I don't know how it entered my head, but I have spent the last few years reading this book, convinced that Taro Gomi is an Israeli author and this was originally published in Hebrew. I'm telling you, I deeply believed this. I don't know why. Maybe I misread something on the inside flap. But I believed this so strongly, I often read this book being like, “so that's what an Israeli toilet looks like”, “I guess Israeli parenting is a lot more open-minded than American parenting, good for them”, and so on. I even found the English to be definitely translated or foreign-sounding... I was like, I guess it's just an Israeli accent. But Taro Gomi is Japanese!?!? My mind is turned upside down.
