About the author

Virginia Miller wrote and illustrated her first George and Bartholomew story after observing a toddler's frustration with potty training. The result was ON YOUR POTTY!, followed by more George and Ba books acclaimed for their simple, authentic dialogue, expressive illustrations, and toddler-friendly themes.


"The next most likely problem needing book treatment," Virginia says, "seemed to be eating -- or not eating -- one's dinner." The winsome EAT YOUR DINNER dramatizes this all-too familiar conflict at the dinner table; in its review of EAT YOUR DINNER, SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL declared, "Everything about this book will appeal to toddlers."


"These books," Virginia says, "are intended to help make light of common parent-child conflicts because if they make you smile, things don't seem so bad." She hopes that every parent and child will recognize the benefits and trials of unconditional love that George the father bear and Bartholomew the child bear share. "When the going gets tough for Bartholomew, it's comforting to him to know that George is always there for him--and will love him through all his moods."


Formerly a resident of Wiltshire, England, Virginia now lives in New Zealand.

Salah satu contoh board book yang bagus. Cerita sederhana, teks berima, gambar menarik dan harga terjangkau #eh.
Terbukti buku ini bagus ketika si bayi kecil tergelak-gelak saat dibacakan kisah Ba.

A cute book perfect for mischievous children, however I feel the emotion of "nah" is too nonchalant and doesn't match the emotion of Bartholomew throughout the book.

George and Bartholomew are a wonderful series about the things that toddlers like to challenge parents on. In Get Into Bed, Miller tackles the issue of bed time with gorgeous illustrations.

Clearly V did not listen to this book as she is currently refusing to take her nap. However this will be great for when she is a little older and can understand the bedtime routine.
