I truly recommend it. It shows Elmo in pampers when he was a baby and how he uses his potty as well as to wash his hands afterwards. My son turned two so i decided to start familiarizing him with potty training. This book is his favorite.
The day after we read this book I found my bathroom covered in toilet paper. First off, the board book pages are thiner than most board books. Not a huge fan of the new Sesame Street. Yeah the probably would have done that anyway, but the book didnt help the situiation. I have little boys and they're really hard on stuff. We had this book for 2 weeks before the pages got bent in half.Second, I didnt like the fact that ernie used WAY to much toilet paper.
It just says "Ernie unsnaps his pants and goes." Overall, a great book for boys and girls. This book is cute and to the point. The only thing lacking is the words pee pee and doo doo.
That's an important message for toddlers. Karen Katz has a nice potty book as well if you're interested. I have come to learn that most potty books are essentially the same. However, they also seem to avoid saying "poop" or "pee" which I think is a bit prudish for a book on pottying. This one is no great exception to the potty book rule. One thing that is nice about it is that it specifically states that when he has to "go" Ernie stops playing and runs to the potty.
VERY GOOD BOOK. I GAVE THIS TO MY GRANDSON WHEN I BOUGHT HIS POTTY FOR HIM. HE LOVES BOOKS AND THIS WAS A GREAT CHOICE BECAUSE IT HELPED HIM RELATE TO THE POTTY CHAIR BETTER THAN JUST US SHOWING HIM HOW TO USE IT.
