Gustavo and the Shower Barbara De Filippis

Every night, before falling asleep in his tiny bed, little Gustavo spends some time in his mommy Mildred's large bed. Among cuddles, fairy tales and laughs, one night, suddenly, something really really funny and strange happens... Do your children make a fuss when it's time to take a bath or to shower? Well, if so this book is for you... And of course especially for them!"Gustavo and the Shower" is a comic good-night tale, which, in addition to entertaining children in that delicate moment that precedes sleep, is also aimed at teaching in a relaxed way a sense of responsibility towards oneself, others, and the world. The author created "Gustavo and the Shower" during the 'lockdown' for Covid-19 for her son, when in the evening he showed signs of impatience and agitation; the author herself illustrated it fully by hand with mixed techniques (watercolors, pastels and markers).
