I really liked her approach to potty training and I'm excited to start the process later this summer. There's so much information in this book that I'll probably read it again or listen to the audio version before getting started, but I think it's a great resource.

Wow. What a wealth of information. I especially loved the cheat sheets at the end for quick reference, but I read this book cover to cover and wish we had it when we first attempted to start potty training.
I read this book before starting to potty train my 1.5 year old son. While I haven't started the process yet, I will definitely go with the plan the author lays out in this book. However, I could have just used a quick reference guide on the steps instead of reading her judgmental book. Basically if you have tried any other method of potty training before this one, you are WRONG! Her writing is so scattered and annoying that it takes away from the actual reason we are reading this book....to learn how to potty train! Read this book for the process, but skip over all of the extra judgy, fluff.
This book feels like a very long blog post. There are many pages of why potty training is a good idea before you get to the meat of the book.
The method itself isn’t something I want to try. Have your toddler be nude, do nothing all day but watch them and wait for them to pee, immediately put them on the potty and then clean your floor. Surely there has to be a better way of accomplishing this without the potential of ruining my couch. Pass.

A blog post extended to book length. Very frustrating to read - full of fluff. However, the technique worked like a charm for us. 4 stars for quick, easy potty training
I will review this book if he’s potty trained soonish. I have high hopes.
Book worked like a dream. Would recommend for any mamas that want to potty train day 11 with 3 total accidents.

The method worked well despite the author claiming that 3 year olds are past the point of ideal potty training. I didn't like the sexist tone of the book.
This book was condescending, rude and sexist. According to this book I've already missed my window of opportunity, I guess I'll just be sending my son to university in diapers.
Hands down the best potty training book I have ever read! Our kid is asking to go in almost every situation, with only the occasional reminder necessary. We are in week 3 (block 4?) of the process, and are very pleased with this approach.
P.S. - There are a lot of assumptions about who is running the potty training - mom or dad - that reinforces the stereotype of the dad as a disengaged doofus who does not care enough to do it right. Change will only happen when we change our expectations for the status quo?
