New board book format! Caillou no longer wants to wear diapers even at night. Caillou knows now when he has to use the potty. Very soon, he hopes to use the big toilet and to no longer wear diapers at night. A parent's wish to have their child totally potty trained is not necessarily in line with the physiological capacities of their child. This book helps to understand that it is not parents who potty train their child but rather the child who does it on their own.
"The pictures are bright and fun, while the text is simple and clear, making it perfect for younger children. The book also comes in a sturdy board book format, which I like (my son is a serial book ripper!) Both books in the Caillou Potty Training Series are a great way to start the conversation about toilet training. I really liked that it wasnt all successes in the story; Caillou wets the bed on one page, and its not a big deal, he just tries again. Learning that everyone experiences misses alongside the hits is important for children of all ages."
