Bapu is scared of something in the bathroom! What could it be?
A gang of ghosts in a giggling gather?
Scary skeletons covered in lather?
When Diya discovers it’s none of the things her imagination leads her to believe but just a lizard, she knows that she must save her father. Even if her Bapu says he isn’t actually scared of lizards; he just doesn’t like them.
As someone who is much like Diya’s Bapu, What Could It Be? made me chuckle more than once. I like the whimsical rhyme as characters in the story wonder what scary thing could be in the bathroom. And I love how Diya and Farah make amends for frightening a harmless lizard.
Just like with so many of the Hook Books, the pictures are a treat. I especially like the expressions on the characters’ faces, expressions that sometimes tell a different story from the text itself!
Sweet, humorous and joyful, What Could It Be? is a fun book for early readers!
