Book Reviews of Once Upon a Potty--Girl
Book Review: Great Story--Outdated Potty
Summary: 4 Stars
I used this book for both my son and daughter when they were potty training. I love the story and the graphics in the book, The only thing that needs to be changed is the actually potty. It looks like a big mug. I don't think it quite registers with very small children. Both my kids (I bought the boy and girl version) were perplexed and didn't know what it was--I had to explain to them that it was a potty that you can't buy here-a very special one. If you can explain that away, then I would recommend this book--the story is great!Book Review: Best Potty Book
Summary: 5 Stars
My children love this book. It has great rhythm and flow in reading and cute pictures. It's a favorite!Book Review: ok
Summary: 3 Stars
This book is ok. I wish I had just bought her the video. The potty in the book looks different than ours and my daughter thinks the girl in the book is using a flower pot to go potty in. It's a cute book, but doesn't really help in the process of potty-training.Book Review: Worked for two of my children!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I first tried this with my middle child before he started potty training. He loved it almost instantly. The book helped him become more aware of himself and others and aided his ease into using the toilet. Yes, the "chamber pot" might not be contemporary, but he still made the connection. My youngest started reading his book and it also has helped her use the potty. But, this might be because "she" (21months) was much easier to train than my two oldest boys. She's very interested in the book, so I'm ordering the female verson.Book Review: Let's reinforce gender differences from the start
Summary: 2 Stars
It's great that little girls who are being potty trained are learning that they have a 'pee pee' and all, but what the heck is a 'pee pee' anyway? I always thought that 'pee pee' comes out of a 'wee wee' and not the other way around.
I was originally intrigued that there were both 'boy' and 'girl' books...is their anatomy so different that they need different books? Apparently not, as the 'once upon a potty-girl' book also says that girls have 'pee pee's'...So I guess the only difference is the color of the flowers...not sure why you need separate books. It's nice though that they have a spanish version of this volume too so our espanol speaking friends can teach their children the value of gender differences too...blue for boys, pink and purple for girls. Maybe the chamber pot style toilets in the book actually exist in a spanish speaking country somewhere...maybe....
