A parent would reach for this book when their toddler begins showing interest in the potty or, conversely, if the child feels anxiety or shame about their bodily functions. It is the ultimate icebreaker for the potty-training years, stripping away the mystery and 'gross-out' factor of biology. By showing that everything from the smallest bug to the largest elephant partakes in this daily ritual, Taro Gomi replaces potential embarrassment with matter-of-fact curiosity. Parents will appreciate the straightforward, non-judgmental tone that makes a daunting developmental milestone feel like a natural part of being alive. It is perfectly suited for children ages 0 to 3 who are learning to name their body parts and understand their physical needs.
