Are you ready? It's potty time. DK has just what you need to introduce the concept to your little one. Here are two new his and hers photographic potty books perfect for toddlers. My Potty Book For Girls and My Potty Book For Boys demystifies the often strange world of toilet training with ease. These step-by-step books start with the "novice" who is still in diapers and progress to the successful child who is gaining control of the situation. Toddlers are encouraged to "Take a seat" with a gentle "Take your time, there's no need to rush" approach. Photographs of real children will capture any child's attention and help develop confidence. At the end of My Potty Book parents will confidently exclaim, "Hooray! You did it!"

Colorful photographs chronicle toddlers successfully making the transition from diapers to using the potty in My Potty Book for Boys and My Potty Book for Girls. Children will especially enjoy seeing the potty being worn as a hat and two potties being worn as shoes. ( Apr.)

2.0 out of 5 stars
An okay book, but not great.,
By Kristen Cardozo (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Potty Book: For Boys (Board book)
My son does love this book, but as far as its purpose goes, it falls far short of expectations. There is almost no focus on the purpose of a potty at all. I had hoped that the photographs would be helpful, but they are very cute, posed, and lack the body parts involved in the actual process of using the toilet. There is only one page that even mentions the prohibited bodily functions. I don't enjoy the choice of wording, and it feels like a cheap attempt by a publishing company to get a book out of as few pictures and words as possible. Inexpensive to make, yes, but helpful to toilet-training parents? An emphatic no.

It's a success, but why?,

This review is from: My Potty Book: For Boys (Board book)
This book is a favorite of my 20 month old son's because of the pictures as well as the manner in which I read it, emphasizing how silly it is to use the potty as a toy box, hat, etc. However, it is unclear to me whether he is actually getting the point of the book, or if he just likes the pictures and the way I read it. I think most potty books for boys will fall short to a degree because none are daring enough to show anatomy or discuss the standing vs. sitting issues. However, having a few of these books around can only help and certainly can't hurt. I will say that in comparison to our other potty book which has more detail regarding the process as well as cute drawings, it does not hold my son's attention the way this one does.

A good first book,
This review is from: My Potty Book: For Boys (Board book)
If you want to start talking about potty training with your son, this is a good first book. It shows a few boys in diapers looking at a potty and trying to figure out what it is. Then it gives a basic overview of what to do when you go potty. The numerous images of boys may help your son see this is a normal thing all boys do.
If you've already started using the potty or your child knows what a potty seat is, this book will not be very useful to you.
