Anyone who has had a pet with fur or looked after a small child for any length of time knows that bath time can be a downright battle. Today, we have three books that take the blood, sweat, and tears of bath time and boil them down into some hilarious reading.
Bad Kitty Gets a Bath (Bad Kitty, #1) by Nick Bruel

As Kitty's owner prepares for this event, readers get tips on how to bathe a cat and cat facts, as well as some hilarious entertainment. (This just might be the most accurate depiction of bathing a cat in literature.)
