Book Reviews of My Big Boy Potty
Book Review: This potty book will make your child into a big boy!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a great source for potty training toddlers. It will build their confidence, and will gently teach them how they are expected to act as big boys. It has easy to understand text, and visual illustrations that allow children to relate on a more personal level. With warmth and sensitivity, the authors guide young boys though the challenges and rewards of potty training--from the first steps to the joy of graduating to big boy underpants! I highly recommend this book!Book Review: Finally!
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally, a book that got my toddler interested in using the potty! I'm not sure what it was about this book, but he read it only once or twice before he wanted me to read it to him while he sat on the potty. It has worked great in peaking his interest to potty and be like the character in the book.
Also, we tried using M&Ms as a reward every time he pottied, but then started a sticker chart (found in another book) and that has worked even better!
Book Review: A potty training book that actually deals with reality.
Summary: 4 Stars
Unlike many potty training books, this one actually shows both a mother and a father working with a child through the entire experience of potty training: getting the potty chair, the mechanics of poo and pee, and transitioning from diapers to "big boy pants", all with the boy's parents there and helping with the mechanics as well as love and encouragement. If I had to do it over again, this would be a primary book in my potty training library.Book Review: The child looks 5
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for my 2 year old. But I just cracked up when I opened the book for the first time.
On the first page, the illustration of the "child" looked more like a young adult.
I was laughing throughout the whole book because of illustrations of the boy and disproportionally huge potty. But it worked out because my son enjoyed it because Daddy thought it was funny.
Overall, the concept is great.
Book Review: Good for performance anxiety
Summary: 5 Stars
This is quite a good book in that it gets the child to identify with the character, Michael, and the steps Michael takes to become potty trained. I really like the idea that Michael isn't successful his first time and has to practice on the potty--exactly what my 2.5 year old needs! This is much better than the Ernie Goes Potty book, which is too short and simplistic. My son likes it in combination with the "Everybody Poops" book.
