This fun and colorfully illustrated book will turn all kids into Potty Experts

Our Review

This charming potty training book follows Stanley, a busy three-year-old who would rather hop and wiggle than pause his play for the bathroom. The story cleverly reframes the potty training journey as an exciting mission with the catchy rallying cry, "You and Me Against the PEE...and Me and You Against the POOP!" This engaging approach provides a powerful, positive secret for toilet training success, transforming a potential struggle into a collaborative game.

Vivid, colorful illustrations bring Stanley's energetic world to life, making the process feel relatable and fun rather than intimidating. This story is an ideal resource for parents of toddlers just beginning their potty training adventure, as it directly addresses the common challenge of a child being too preoccupied to stop and go. By empowering the child to become a "Potty Expert," this book fosters a sense of accomplishment and independence, turning a developmental milestone into a confidence-building victory.
