1) Paperback Book Everyone Poops (My Body Science Series) (My Body Science Series) by Kane/Miller Book Pub. My son had me read this over and over again. He thinks it is so funny. Especially how the elephant has big poop and the mouse has tiny poop. Although it hasn´t helped him get potty trained yet, we both have fun reading it.¤ 2) Paperback Book Everyone Poops (My Body Science Series) (My Body Science Series) by Kane/Miller Book Pub. I´ve always loved this book. I first saw it in a store when I was a teenager and thought it was hilarious. Now that I have a little one, I plan on reading this book with him when he´s on his little potty. When it´s that time, of course. For now, he´s still too young.
However, there is a child in the early stages of potty training in my life and this book has helped us immensely. For a while, we were all worried that this child would be in diapers for several years. She didn´t seem to mind having a dirty or wet diaper--didn´t even notice. We could all be sitting around playing and then the most noxious smell would emanate from her. I´d look her straight in the eyes and say, "E, did you poop?" And she´d look back at me, eyes as wide as big blue saucers, and slowly shake her little head, saying, "Nooooo."
One day, when she had insisted that, indeed, she did NOT have a poopy diaper, I remembered this book, long forgotten on my shelf, and said to her, "E, it´s okay. Everyone poops." At that moment, something clicked. She stopped crying and fighting, looked at me and said, "Everyone poops?" I nodded and started listing everyone she knows. (SuSu poops. Nana poops. Daddy poops. Gamma poops. Baby Arthur poops. The cat poops. etc.) And after that diaper change, I got this book down from the shelf and showed her. It´s one of her favorites now.
Thanks to this book, whenever she has a poopy diaper, she´ll walk up to me (or my mother or grandmother--we all take turns caring for her) and say, "Poop!" She now understands that it´s okay that she did it, that it´s natural, that everyone does it. And sometimes, when she feels the urge to poop, she´ll come up to us and say, "Everyone poops!" So she gets on her potty and we read about how everyone poops.
My mother is a bit concerned that E will say "Everyone poops!" at the grocery store, in church and other inappropriate places. And, indeed, she has. We´ve gotten some criticism, but I just shrug and say, "She´s got a point." When she gets a little older, she´ll learn that you don´t inform the people sitting in front of you at church or the cashier at the grocery store that everyone poops. But for now, she´s almost two and identifying poop and accepting that it happens is a big achievement.
I recommend this book to any parent or caregiver trying to potty train who isn´t prone to getting squeamish about bodily functions.¤ 3) Paperback Book Everyone Poops (My Body Science Series) (My Body Science Series) by Kane/Miller Book Pub. Well, everyone DOES, and it´s another thing kids are curious about. Is also a boost for potty training, by explaining the purpose in an age-appropriate, humorous way. Also recommend "The Gas We Pass: The Story of Farts" for how to answer another of those embarrassing questions from your wee ones.¤ 4) Paperback Book Everyone Poops (My Body Science Series) (My Body Science Series) by Kane/Miller Book Pub. This is a fun book that helps children understand potty training. It made a world of difference for us!¤ 5) Paperback Book Everyone Poops (My Body Science Series) (My Body Science Series) by Kane/Miller Book Pub. It´s just hilarious and great. I had it when I was young and I bought it now because I just htought it was be funny. I was not disappointed.¤ 6) Paperback Book Everyone Poops (My Body Science Series) (My Body Science Series) by Kane/Miller Book Pub. "Everyone Poops by Taro Gomi is part biology textbook, part sociological treatise and all celebration of a very natural process. Both my daughters begged me to read the book over and over again. They marveled at the enormity of the elephant´s poop and searched with the skill of a scientist for the tiny specks which represent bug poop. The text is simple and straightforward but not without humor.¤ Page Updated: Robert N. Goolsby, 2-Dec-2008, 192913214X9781929132140, 980-350-021-321-4X1-581-8
