From the Publisher
Caillou is growing up, and the Compass series grows right along with him. The theme of each book reflects Caillou's - and readers' - growth and corresponds to appropriate stages of child development, as Caillou experiences new situations and becomes more aware of his independence. Created with the input of a child psychologist, the Compass books can also help children to understand and express their feelings while encouraging parents to talk to children about their emotions.

Customer Reviews

Cheerful approach to the potty5
This sturdy,colorfully illustrated book provides age-appropriate information for the 2-3 year-old child. In comparison to the Sesame Street version and also the Rugrats potty book, this book focuses more on the emotions that your toddler may experience during potty training. Unlike many of these books, Caillou Potty Time is gender neutral. The approach is upbeat, and encouraging. Would reccomend reading this one early in the process.Both my child and I have enjoyed reading the book.

Not a great potty-training book2
My toddler loves Caillou, but this book doesn't do much to help facilitate potty training. My son never thought of wearing his potty chair on his head until we read it in this book. Ugh. It also isn't very clear about what Caillou is doing on the potty, and there is too much emphasis on his accidents. I think we read this book twice before I donated it to our library - I figured that way at least a parent could read through it to decide if it would help them before spending money on it.

A Little Disappointed3
I bought this book because my 2 1/2 year old son loves Caillou and we were in the midst of potty training. It seems my son was having more accidents after we read the book--many times. He was even quoting from the book--"Oops didn't make it on time" and "I don't have to use the potty!" I think the book is cute and I like the colorful illustrations, but it seemed to make my son think it was ok to regress. We put it away and he is back on track!
