Liesbet Slegers (1975, Belgium) studied Graphics and Illustrations at the Saint-Lucas institute of Antwerp. She works as a full-time graphic designer and illustrator. With her simple, recognizable style and vivid colors, she knows how to attract the attention of every toddler.
"A child takes a bath and gets ready for bed. The tot, who has light skin and short dark hair, directly addresses readers, explaining each step of the process, from soaping up in the tub to drinking a bottle of milk to falling asleep for the night in their crib. Each page has concise, direct explanations (“This is the bathtub. Look! Water comes out of the faucet. The bath fills up with water”) that proceed step by step—like a visual checklist. The verso illustrates the object the child is discussing (it’s also bolded in the text), while the recto shows the resulting action. One page depicts a pair of yellow-checked pajamas, while the facing page features an image of the little one wearing the jammies. The illustrations are simple, boldly outlined, and mostly set against a stark white background. Even if this story feels like familiar board-book territory, young readers who are buoyed by repetition and clear expectations will find it reassuring and welcoming. A comforting, step-by-step guide to a well-trod topic." - Kirkus Reviews
