One chilly day, as the three friends walk together through the forest, a mouthwateringly delicious smell drifts through the air. Following their noses, they discover an enormous pumpkin, filled to the brim with sweet, delicious soup. A sign reads \"Pumpkin Soup Bathhouse,\" and beneath it, another message: \"Today is a very cold day. Please relax as long as you like in the warm bath. But whatever you do, do not eat the soup!\"\n\nThe three friends climb into the warm, cozy bath and let their bodies thaw. But soon their tummies start to rumble, and even though they were told not to, they can't resist — they gulp down the sweet soup. Suddenly, their once snow-white fur turns completely the color of pumpkin soup! No amount of scrubbing with a towel can wash it away.\n\nWith no other choice, they trudge on down the road, until they stumble upon a white stew bathhouse. Once again, a sign warns them not to eat the stew — but surely, eating the stew might turn their fur back to its original color? Will the three friends be able to resist the temptation of the delicious stew this time? Every new bathhouse they discover brings a new flavor — and a new adventure!\n\nThe more you're told not to do something, the more you want to do it!\n\nAn irresistibly silly and hilariously funny story featuring shameless yet lovable, quirky characters. Author Keiko Shibata, who captivated readers with the 'Bread Thief' series, now weaves together delicious food and playful imagination to bring us an utterly unique bathhouse tale. Thanks to the clever idea of comparing a warm, delicious bowl of soup to a \"bathhouse,\" a sensory-rich bathing adventure begins.\n\nOur irrepressible heroes — who want to do exactly what they're told not to, and whose curiosity always wins out over reason — will remind you of the adorable, mischievous children in your own life. Each time the three friends encounter a new bathhouse, they casually break the rules and are met with a delightfully unpredictable twist, drawing readers deeper and deeper into the story. Thanks to its repetitive structure, readers can turn each page wondering with delight what will happen next.\n\nThe ever-changing expressions on the three friends' faces, along with the charming and distinctive bathhouse shapes — a pumpkin, a pot, a cup — add even more visual delight. What kind of bathhouse will appear next? Will the three friends be able to resist temptation this time? This warm and cheerful winter picture book, full of joyfully subverted expectations, is guaranteed to bring a smile to every reader's face.","brand":"IBOOKPARK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49624292917476,"sku":"03252024992","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/9788\/6692\/files\/9791192655468.jpg?v=1786426442","url":"https:\/\/ibookpark.com\/en\/products\/%ed%98%b8%eb%b0%95-%eb%aa%a9%ec%9a%95%ed%83%95","provider":"IBOOKPARK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
