“Your child will be empowered by Joshua as he learns to use his new potty.”

My little boy is one of those kids that has to understand the why and how of things. If he doesn't see the point of something, he simply won't do it. Once Upon a Potty-Boy shows him step by step and explains things in a way he seemed to comprehend. At least now he's willing to try the potty. And that's a big step in the right direction.--Tami Brady "TCM Reviews" (10/1/2010 12:00:00 AM)
This clear and simple book has been a favorite among parents and toddlers for decades. There are versions for boys and girls, each with age-appropriate anatomical descriptions. The simple illustrations show everything, too, even the poop.--Marygrace Taylor "What to Expect" (5/6/2020 12:00:00 AM)
