Dino, the potty star: potty training older children, stubborn kids, and baby boys and girls who refuse to give up their diapers. the funniest dinosaurs book for children 3-5 years-old.

This book centers around the idea that children should feel ashamed of their bodily functions. The dino is 4 years old and is embarrassed to be in diapers as his sisters cute friends are coming over. He is not given proper potty training equipment until 4. Many more issues with the concepts of the book but you may determine for yourself. Highly do not recommend.

Very funny book and my 4 year old wad delighted when it arrived.. she loves dinosaurs and this is the perfect book for her :)

Pros:- Very relatable for little kids since it recognizes a lot of the common toddler fears about using the potty.- Helps explain how to tell you need to poop. This is the key reason we've kept this book in our potty story rotation, as getting a kid to 1) be willing to poop in the potty, and 2) know how to tell that they even need to poop in the first place, is the last major hurdle to getting toddlers 100% potty trained.- Cute story that my daughter loves.- Cute illustrations.Cons:- Rhymes are hit or miss. Some of them work really well, but others? Not so much. I'm not sure what accent you have to have to make "I lowered my head" rhyme with "Once we were all kids"...- Not thrilled with the page where the kid pooped while his dad was watching a game and the dad just wrapped him in newspapers instead of changing him. It may seem like a harmless bit of fun, but is this a Dad stereotype that we really need to be reinforcing at this age?- The page where the kid poops at the store and he says "Sometimes I wish my mom had six hands" rhymes, but doesn't make sense to a toddler. I have to explain this page to my daughter almost every time we read it.- A little on the long side for something you're having your kid read while on the potty. Especially if they're like my daughter where she insists that I have to read it to her and then she has to read it to me.- Would be better as a board book or at least have laminated pages. Since this is something we're reading in the bathroom, it's pretty easy for it to get messy fast.

The worst book ever written for potty training. I would have sent it back if I could find it.

Beautiful story but my grandson doesn’t have a daddy so we sent it back 😞
