Mum is the 'boring' hero who saves the day with sunscreen and towels after Dad and Bluey realize the pool is actually quite 'bitey' without their gear.

This isn't just another lazy TV-to-book cash grab. It actually translates one of the show's better 'parent-lesson' episodes into something kids can hold.
It’s a high-five to every parent who has ever spent forty-five minutes packing a bag only to be told they’re 'ruining the fun.' It’s short, sweet, and actually has a point. If you're going to have licensed character books in the house, make them Bluey books.
Perfect for the 2 to 5 crowd. It's a sturdy board book, so it's great for preschoolers, though older Bluey fans (up to 7) will still enjoy the story even if they've outgrown the format.
It captures the quintessential Bluey vibe: realistic family dynamics where parents aren't perfect but everyone clearly loves each other. It models the 'boring' but necessary parts of caretaking.
While it's a direct adaptation of a TV episode, the story focuses on the imaginative ways kids transform a boring pool trip into an adventure—until they realize they need their stuff.
Zero concerns. It's a board book about a family trip to a swimming pool. No surprises, no scares, just sunscreen and pool toys.
It's a stealthy lesson in gratitude for the 'mental load' parents carry. It teaches kids that the preparation they find annoying is actually what makes the fun possible.
