Bing Get Dressed

Bing : Get Dressed
ISBN: 9780007514779
Publication Date: 1 January 2015

Ted Dewan has created a series that focuses on the dynamic between toddler and parent, and that speaks to them both equally, about life as a toddler and life with a toddler. With short, repetitive texts, bold, bright artwork and appealing characters, Bing offers both parent and child an enjoyable reading experience and a simple, reassuring guiding principle - that, whatever happens, it's just a Bing thing, a normal occurrence, and nothing to get upset about. Getting dressed is an important life skill to learn when you're a toddler. It's also really difficult! It's hard to know which bit of your body goes into which hole! Clever Bing has mastered putting on his his clothes (with a little help from his constant companion Flip), but he's struggling with the right order. And when he's fully dressed, uh-oh, he has an accident. Don't worry, Bing. It's no big thing. Just get dressed all over again! That's the Bing thing.
