Description
PreS—Both books feature the same smiling, bald baby. In the first book, the toddler has to 'go
potty.' Intimidated, the child investigates the cat's and dog's solutions. Several sound effects and
wiggles later, the youngster gives the potty a shot with eventual success and accolades. In Tubby,
muddy footprints and an obviously dirty child let readers know that it is bath time. The excited
youngster has a grand time playing with bubbles and toys. These appealing books feature simple
text, bright acrylic illustrations, and everyday situations that are certain to engage the very
young.—Laura Butler, Mount Laurel Library, NJ (c) Copyright 2011.  Library Journals LLC, a

abundance of sly humor in Patricelli's comfortably rounded, bold-hued acrylic illustrations-she
outdoes herself with a multi-panel spread including the protagonist sitting, naked, on the tiny toilet
perusing a potty-training manual. Add to this the books' brief, child-friendly texts, and Tubby and
Potty join the elite club of board books that toddlers will want to hear over and over again-and
parents won't mind—The Horn BookA cheerful declaration of independence, this refreshing
treatment allows toddlers to imagine a successful future. Parents will know it's not that easy, but
they will enjoy the humor that accompanies this heaping helping of positive
reinforcement.—Kirkus ReviewsMinimalist compositions, thickly and shaggily outlined against
bright, monochromatic backgrounds, should convince tykes of either gender that the bathroom is a
kingdom they'll want to rule—Bulletin of the Center for Children's BooksThese appealing books
feature simple text, bright acrylic illustrations, and everyday situations that are certain to engage
the very young.—School Library Journal Read more See all Editorial Reviews
