Very helpful

This book was very helpful, and priced at a much lower rate than other books with less information. It will give all parents - especially the frustrated parents - enough information to put their mind at ease. The main thing for a parent to remember is that their child will not become potty trained until they are ready... however, this guide will give you the information to know when they are ready, to talk to them without discouraging them, and what you can do to get them ready.

A great holiday gift for Grandmothers!

A good summary of modern American thoughts on toilet learning: basically, relax! As things have changed drastically since we were in diapers, this is a good way to bring older relatives up to date--and to verify the advice they give you! One thing to beware of though: the cover photo (girl sitting her teddy on the toilet) may lead to imitations in your house....

Highly recommended

This is a wonderfully practical book. I plan buying it for my friends when their children turn two. I purchased 2 other books regarding toilet training, and I have 4-5 bookmarks in this one while the others are back on the shelf. This is an excellent book to read before your child is ready as it outlines the preparation phase to toilet training very well.

Great Book

This book has completely calmed my nerves regarding potty training. I bought two other potty training books and while they were good this book was the most straightforward, practical, and easy to read of the three. The book discusses, among other topics, when your toddler is ready, how to prepare your toddler, and then step by step instructions to accomplish toilet learning. The chapter on preparing your toddler is great. It provides a lot of examples and continually reiterates that every child is different.
