The Swishing Shower Tuula Pere

"Little Fears" is a book series about the various concerns that children can have. Sometimes, minor harms may grow into big worries if they are ignored. Fortunately, there are fun ways and gentle tools to handle such situations, often through play.




Little Sam doesn't like taking a shower at all. It's very noisy in the bathroom because of an echo coming off the tiles. On top of that, he inhales water and gets soap in his eyes.

"I want my baby bathtub!" Sam screams.

Then big brother Niles comes to the rescue. Under their toy umbrella, the brothers sing a rain song together. And soon, the little brother is fearlessly standing under running water.
