Another enchanting book from Tracey Corderoy - she really hits the spot with her books which show a real insight into young readers' minds. This one takes the perennial problem of potty training and makes a lovely story around the characters of Baby Bear and Barnaby, his toy rabbit. Baby Bear is having a bit of trouble grasping what the potty is actually for, but he (and Barnaby) get used to it by playing games. Then Baby Bear gets some new pants - but not any pants; these are lovely soft-to-touch pants which little fingers will love to follow through the story. But he's still having trouble until Mummy comes up with a great idea.......... This is a reasuring read about a potentially tricky subject and all toddlers will readily identify with Baby Bear when he doesn't quite get there. Adorable characters, lovingly drawn by Caroline Pedler, enhance the story. A lovely read.
