Parents will learn how to set the stage, recognize readiness, choose a potty seat, dress their child for success, deal with an uncooperative child, find products--cloth or disposable, handle accidents, understand the issues, use rewards--or not, cope when traveling, and deal with bed-wetting. There is a Potty Progress Chart and a Potty Diploma to fill-in to post a child's successes.
Being a new mother, this book has been a big help! My husband and I have found Ms. Lansky's advice to be very sensible as well as benificial to both us and our daughter. This book was recommed to me by a friend. and I would pass this information on to anyone I know with children.

I found this book to be very helpful in potty training my daughter. We had tried several different approaches. She was over 2 1/2 when we trained her. This book works.
