'SPLASH,' cries Joshua, 'SPLASH!' as he charges through his watery adventures on a day out with his granny. First in the puddles, then at the pond, then in the fountain and finally in the swimming pool. This delightful day out, enjoyed to the full by both Joshua and his granny, is a joy to read about for water lovers and non-water lovers alike. With bright art and wonderfully lyrical text, this delightful book will be a favourite for families who know the pleasures of playing in water.
