What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book deals with the process of potty training directly and factually. Accidents are depicted non-judgmentally as an “oops” moment with a small puddle, devoid of any shame or negativity. The approach is entirely secular, normalizing a universal biological process in a positive light. The resolution is hopeful and celebratory.
Ideal Reader
An 18-month to 3-year-old who is just beginning their potty learning journey. This book is especially well-suited for a child who is visually oriented and benefits from seeing a process broken down into simple, clear steps. It’s also great for a child who might be a little wary or unsure of this new object and routine.
