Toilet training can be a fraught time in the life of a family. Worries about when to begin, feelings of being housebound when your child is learning to go nappy-free and potty wariness can all conspire to make this major milestone feel a little daunting.
Luckily some genius authors and illustrators have banded together to hatch some brilliant books that help familiarise kids with the mechanics and timing of using the potty.
