About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler or preschooler has mastered the basics of the potty but still struggles with the social etiquette of the bathroom, such as flushing, handwashing, or knowing when to go. This charming collection of rhymes introduces the animal students at Sycamore School, each demonstrating a common bathroom mishap or success. It emphasizes responsibility and self-care through relatable school scenarios. By framing potty habits as part of being a big kid at school, the book builds confidence and removes the power struggle often associated with training. It is perfect for children aged 2 to 5 who are preparing for or currently attending preschool. Parents will appreciate the gentle humor and the way it normalizes the physical signals of the body without being overly clinical or graphic.
What Parents Should Know

Ideal Reader
A 3-year-old who is physically potty trained but frequently has 'fidget accidents' because they don't want to stop playing, or a child starting preschool who is nervous about the bathroom rules in a new environment.
