Addresses potty training for parents who may be looking to use just the right words.--Tara Munkatchy"Daily Local News [West Chester PA]" (06/17/2008)

edition.
Product Description
"Just like you, Prudence has a body, and this body has many nice and useful parts:
A head for thinking
Eyes for seeing
Ears for hearing
A mouth to talk and eat with
Hands for playing
A pee-pee for making Wee-Wee
Legs for walking and running
A bottom for sitting and in it a little hole for making Poo-Poo"Potty talk has long been considered taboo in conversation -- even between parent and child. Thankfully, Alona Frankel presents toilet training in a frank, open way for parents and children. Available in both "Girl" and "Boy" formats, "Once Upon a Potty" books are best used as companion volumes to a child's new potty.

Dear Fellow-Parents,
"Once Upon a Potty" is best used as a companion volume to a child's new potty. I wrote this book when my own child was toilet training to help him better understand the process. My son was encouraged and excited by this story. It motivated him to make the developmental leap from diaper to potty.
Learning to use the potty is often a lengthy process, taxing the patience of both parent and child. When success finally comes -- and it should come in its own good time, without undue pressure or haste -- it enhances the child's confidence and pride. She has taken another step toward independence. She sat on the potty as a little child and got up feeling ten-feet tall.
It's one small step for mankind, but a giant one for your family.
Love,
Alona

I don't normally write reviews on books, but I felt I had to this time. We had been potty training my daughter (28 months) for nearly a week with continuous accidents and nothing in her potty. We bought this book, which she immediately loved and wanted it read over and over. We still had accidents that day, but the following day she did all her wee's into the potty with only one accident. Amazing! 2 weeks later and she is now doing both wee's and poo's into her potty 'just like Prudence'! A must for all those who are potty training.

I have a little girl aged 18 months and she adores this book not only the story but the pictures.I think this book is a great way to make the whole new experience of the potty a less frightening thing. I have been telling every one I know with a toddler to buy this book.

Our daughter would not sit on the potty without her nappy on till we read this book to her. Suddenly it was no problem and she wanted the story every time she sat on the potty. Three days later she is now doing everything on the potty and still wants this story.

Awkward to read and not in British English
Save your money. The story is horribly difficult to read and not really in language appropriate to the UK or to my two-and-a-half year old. Read more

Geared to an American audience
