5.0 out of 5 stars THE ONLY Potty Book You Need!, January 14, 2001
By 
Michelle Ciccariello (Yermo, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When You've Got To Go (Bear in the Big Blue House, No. 6) (Paperback)
We checked out all of them; this one is the Best! It covers everything in such a reassuring way. Various animal characters (appropriate for both girls and boys) go to the potty, illustrating that it's o.k. to interrupt what you're doing; everything will be there waiting for you when you get back, that it's o.k. to take your time, even read a book while you're on the potty, that it's o.k. to forget a step and have to go back, say, to flush, that it's o.k. to "not quite make it" and have a little mess on the floor. Our Curious 2 year old especially liked the section where the book shows what happens after you flush (cute diagram of the indoor plumbing). And at the end of the book, the characters even address the fear of growing up, reassuring children that using the potty doesn't mean they have to give up being little kids. It finishes off with a rhyme about listening to your body.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for older toddlers!, December 27, 2002
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: When You've Got To Go (Bear in the Big Blue House, No. 6) (Paperback)
If, like me, you have an older toddler, who understands the concept of using the potty, but isn't fully trained yet, this is a GREAT book! My 3 yr old daughter just loves the idea of becoming a Toileteer. We read this book every day. So far, no other book has motivated her the way this one has. However, if you are just starting potty learning, you might want to get another book to go with this one, a book that would explain more about how to use the potty. I don't think this would be an effective book for a child who had no clue what the potty was. But for a child who has the basic idea down, and just needs a little reassurance, this is an awesome book. My favorite part is the end, where Luna reassures kids that they can still be kids, and Mommy and Daddy will still take care of them, even when they use the potty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great toilet-training book for parents and kids, August 22, 2002
This review is from: When You've Got To Go (Bear in the Big Blue House, No. 6) (Paperback)
You or your child(ren) do not have to be fans of "Bear in the Big Blue House" to use and appreciate this very helpful book. (I'm lucky that it's my 2½ year-old's favorite show). The pictures and words are uncomplicated and easy for children to understand, and I like that when covering the basic bodily functions, they used the words "poop" and "pee" rather than cutesy names. It's not really gender-specific, since it doesn't cover or show genitalia/ differences between boys and girls, but it handles everything else in a fun and educational manner. Parents may also like how it emphasizes wiping and hand washing after using the toilet, and it shows (with a clever illustration) where poop and pee go when flushed away. There's even a Toileteers Club that the characters form at the end, and the book comes with a Toileteer sticker as a bonus. There are plenty of reassurances along the way: that accidents happen, and that's normal and OK; that it's alright to leave what you're doing to go to the potty, and your things will still be there when you come back; and that giving up diapers does not mean that the other great things about being a kid--like cuddles and hugs and love from mommy and daddy--go away. The episode this is based on is also available on video, and is equally good. Very highly recommended, along with "Once Upon a Potty" (separate books and videos for girls and boys) and "The Potty Book," also separate for boys and girls.
