Customer reviews
"The original Wishy-Washy is a sure hit with kids and toddlers"
My daughter has adored Mrs Wishy-Washy's Splishy Sploshy since she was about 7 months old (now 15 months) and so I recently bought her Mrs Wishy-Washy. It's the original introduction to the crazy and fastidious Mrs Wishy-Washy who just loves to tub and scrub. Although it's designed for children learning to read clearly much younger children (and adults) will enjoy not only the story but the cleverly written rhythm and rhyme. It's a NZ classic that is part of a series that's had epic success around the world.

Description
Cow, Pig, and Duck are playing in the mud, when along comes Mrs. Wishy-Washy. "Oh lovely mud," think the three friends. But Mrs. Wishy-Washy says, "Just LOOK at you!" and washes them clean: wishy-washy, wishy-washy. But what do you think happens the moment Mrs. Wishy-Washy turns her back on this mud-loving trio? Better have a scrub brush ready!
A perfect introduction to the delightful storytelling of Joy Cowley.
Review
Mud, lovely mud--the cow exclaims as she jumps in to roll about. The portly pig decides to join in the fun followed by the sassy white duck. Oh, this will never do! Mrs. Wishy-Washy is very distressed, and she soon dumps them one by one into a sudsy tub and scrubs until every speck of mud is gone. Content with her clean up, Mrs. Wishy-Washy walks away, and what do those animals do? They jump right back into the mud and resume playing. Mrs. Wishy-Washy has made the transition to board book and the antics of her farmyard friends will entertain a whole new generation of young children. Children's Literature

Good story, however, the book itself should be bigger in size. Kids would love and appreciate it more if it's more visible specially in kindie schools where you put it in rolling board while narrating it to them.
