Moundlic, Charlotte The Bathing Costume or The Worst Vacation of My Life, illustrated by Olivier Tallec translated from French by Claudia Zoe Bedrick PICTURE BOOK 40 pgs. 2013 Enchanted Lion Books $15.95
Ronnie is spending his first vacation without his mama. A week in the country with his grandparents and cousins; it’s bad enough that his cousins treat him like a baby, but when they go swimming, Ronnie discovers he brought his older brothers suit (grandma calls it a bathing costume) and now that he’s 8 he has to jump off the high board.
This Batchelder honor book about making the best of a bad situation would be a fun choice for the elementary library.
