5.0 out of 5 stars A super little book for boys and their pottys, 25 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Once Upon a Potty : Boy (Hardcover)
I love everything about this tiny book featuring Joshua and his new potty. To begin with, the illustrations are bright and eye catching. But the very best part of the book is the cler and simple language that the author uses to tell the story. As a first-time mom, I had no idea how to speak to my son about using his little potty chair or what to say about the fluids, etc., coming out of his body. I also found myself very frustrated at the end of a long day, cleaning up an unexpected mess or changing yet another pair of training pants. However, by using the language in the book, and repeating Joshua's mother's kind words about "accidents", I was able to keep my cool and not make potty training any harder for my son. It's nice to see a potty book that shows a child having accidents occasionally but still succeeding. It's also nice to have words to explain to a small child what the new potty is and not to be scared of it. I'm actually logged on today to buy another copy for a friend! Love this book!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars This book worked for us !, 8 Dec 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Once Upon a Potty : Boy (Hardcover)
I cannot praise this book enough. Since reading the other reviews and purchasing it myself, my son has happily started using the potty for No2's where previously he wouldn't.

Its very true to life and as well as illlustrations showing poo in the potty it also covers a toileting accident too. Its very easy for my 2yr 8 months old to understand and he loves the book, so much so, I read it about 10 times a day.

As others have said it is written in American Language ie. diaper for nappy etc but you can change the words when you read it to ones you and your child are familiar with.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very useful book, 20 Jul 2005
This review is from: Once Upon a Potty : Boy (Hardcover)
A great book, that has proven very useful at a hard time in a childs development. My son loves the book and has memorised large chunks of the rhymes included.

My only gripe is the american language (diaper etc), but this can easily be changed when reading to your child and the book more than makes up for it.

Apart from the Americanisms (diaper) and the fact the illustration does show an old fashioned 'po' as opposed to a potty - this book is fabulous. Read more
