Love it but no potty success yet! - By: char-lou-hap78, 08 May 2008 
I purchased this book over a year ago & have been reading it to my daughter while encouraging her to use her potty on a regular basis since then. She absolutely loves it & if i am having trouble convincing her to sit on the pot then this book always helps convince her. Unfortunately it has not helped to speed up the training process as she has just turned 3 & is still holding in her wee & poo until she is back in knickers or her nappy. If i leave her bare she eventuallly just wees or poos on the floor. This book has made it easy for me to explain what to do & my daughter loves repeating bits back to me & will quite happily sit & look at the pictures on her own. I guess she will do it when she is ready & not before ;o)
Not for younger children - By: Book fan, 28 Apr 2008 
The blurb says this is suitable for children 1 year+. There is a lot of text & the pictures aren't great so whilst it is a sweet story the child will need more advance cognitive skills than a young toddler to get anything from the book, or for the book to emphasise the potty training message it is trying to convey. My book-mad & very verbal 23 month old daughter is uninterested in it- a first for her as she devours books. I'm sure she'll enjoy it in a few months but the story is too complex for her at the moment.
Still a much loved book - By: D. Daniels, 23 Dec 2007 
I bought this when my daughter was 2.5 when we started potty training. She loved it & it reallly helped her understand what a potty is for. It's reallly basic & easy for her to understand. It is a bit American but I just read the word diaper as nappy to avoid confusion.
My daughter is 3 now, is completely toilet trained & still loves this book.
Good book for kids - By: L. Allan, 11 Dec 2007 
My two year old daughter loved this book. She carried around everywhere she went. She knew what alll the pictures meant. She could ask for her 'potty book'. The pictures are great & the message comes across very well.
A good potty training story - By: Mrs. K. Charlton, 18 Oct 2007 
We bought this book for our 2 year old when potty training - she loved it & was immediately fascinated by the "wee & poo" pictures! She had already done a poo on the potty & been a bit freaked by it until reading this so I think it helped get her over that. We used Gina Ford Potty Training in one week & it took 3 days before she stopped having accidents & they have been rare ever since. I do think this book helped as it gave her something positive to read specificallly whilst sitting on the potty. Shame there can't be an English nappy version though.
