This is a cute potty book. I find it a helpful tool that goes along with the process of potty training. Since I have no experience with boy potty training I found it a helpful tool

"My Big Boy Potty" is a good potty book for toddlers who have 2 parents living together in a happy relationship. It's quite well written and details the whole learning process. But it's a bit awkward to read to my son, whose father has been absent and uninvolved since he was 2 months old.

In this book little Michael's daddy is there helping on almost every page. I find myself avoiding it for that reason. My son and I much prefer a book called "Done with Diapers: A Potty ABC" by Rebecca O'Connell, which has been one of my son's favourites for a few months now.

My son is now 3 years and 7 months old and FINALLY potty trained. Alhtough other books were cute, this one was practical explaining accidents and the need for night time diapers after day time training. Very cute and one of my sons favorite books.

We are just starting potty training and my son LOVES this book. He can totally relate to Michael, the little boy in the story. I think it does a great job of explaining the potty training process in simple, easy-to-understand terms. Each time we read it he gets excited about trying to use the potty. I highly recommend it.

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!

This book is a great example for potty training toddlers. It clearly illustrates how to show, in easy to understand language, your potty trainer, suggestions on how to use the potty. Such visual illustrations allow the child to relate in a more personal level. This book also shows children that it is o.k. to have an accident, without ridicule. Great Book. Here's a tip for those anxious parents, your child is precious and unique so do not be upset if they do not catch on right away, be patient and kind, and the will succeed with your support. Good Luck.

My little boy really saw himself in this book, he has a special teddy that he would sit with while reading on his potty.
Its a good book for introduction to the potty!

This book has great pictures! It's not to long so it hold's your toddler's interest.

I decided to get my 2 year old a book about using the potty, to get him started. I got Once Upon a Potty, but it was a bit too graphic and detailed for him. He wasn't at all interested in it, and didn't seem to like it. Because he LOVES Joanna Cole's book I'm a Big Brother, I decided to try her Potty book. He LOVES it. Though he is not potty trained yet (we have not really started seriously working on that yet), he does recite the book to me now, and pretends that he is the boy in the book. i'm thrilled with how much he enjoys it and seems to relate to it. I highly recommend this book, particularly for preparing to potty-train.

I liked this book a lot, and not just because it's about a boy named Michael, which is my non-pottying son's name.

I think my son will get some hints from this book, although it doesn't answer any anatomy questions (like "where does poop come out"). Also, it focusses on the little boy using a special potty seat and we don't use one of those at our house. Other than that, I do like the book.
