Buster’s Bubble-by-Bubble Wash

Five Picture Steps Make a Careful Routine Easy to Remember

By R. Stanek (Robert Stanek)

About the story

Hungry Buster wants to hurry to his snack, but Mom Bee helps him follow five picture cues in order: wet, lather, scrub, rinse, and dry. The simple images help him slow down and complete each part.

Later, Dad Bee playfully invites Buster to demonstrate the sequence. Remembering and teaching all five actions gives Buster pride in caring for himself without using fear, germs, or shame to motivate him.
