Summary: Speeding the training process
Comment: I read this book many times over at a camp where I worked with children with disabilities. A goal of one child was for them to become independently potty trained and she was my "kid" for the summer. She was struggling a lot with the independence of it and we had just gotten her a new specialized toilet which coincided with the one she now had at home. She would not even sit on it at first. The Princess and the Potty became routine for her to listen to. I think this book models independence, yet also stresses the idea that the child knows when they are ready.

Summary: Excellent Potty Training Book For Girls and Parents
Comment: This story is good for two reasons.
1. The story is funny and engaging for the average 2-3 year old (the target audience) and relates the story of the princess' potty training in language and a style that the kids can understand.
2. It also reminds parents that potty training is on the child's schedule, and cannot be rushed.
In the tale, the princess is too busy doing other things to be interested in any of the plethora of potties that the king and queen have gotten for her. She continues to wear her diaper through glow in the dark potties and musical potties, etc. Even the efforts of the king and his court cannot change her mind. Finally, the princess decides that she likes the queen's pantalettes and wants a pair for herself. This is the impetus for her to master potty training.
Any parents who have been thru the process realize it is never simple or straightforward regardless of the 24 hour or weekend "solutions". The child will do this on their own schedule, but this book provides humour and a light-hearted look at the challenges.
My only complaint (despite the fact that I have two daughters) is that there isn't a version for boys.
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent
Comment: Our little girl was really reluctant to use the toilet. I found this book really helpful because it showed a little girl having issues using the toilet. At the end there is a lovely picture of a happy little girl sitting on the toilet - very useful.
