your review made me laugh. My daughter was struggling with the exact same thing until I got this book!
I'm glad you got a giggle out of it! It certainly wasn't funny while I was going through it, but it's much easier to laugh now. This is still one of my favorite children's books!
It's just one of those words that makes you smile, you know, Mike?
snicker
Your review made me laugh. Been there! So what finally worked with your daughter? This book or something else? For my kid the switch to underwear did the trick, but it took about a week.
Oh Anne, I would say you win the internet today with this review, but Goodreads is a motherf*&^%$g thunder-stealer and won it by making all of us live in the wrong countries.
Laughing so hard. (And my oldest was FOUR before he finally figured it out. I was ready to turn myself in to Social Services for being such a failure of a mother.)
Kelly, my son was 4 too but I didn't mention that in my comment above. I was so ashamed! Even teary a couple of times. Lol. (It's funny to me now because he's 20.) The other funny thing is that once he finally decided to use the potty regularly, his 2 year old brother watched him a few times and then promptly potty-trained himself.
My second son refused to poop in the toilet, too. I had to lock his nighttime pull-ups in my bedroom, or else he'd snag one every time he needed to poo. He was so defiant about it! Lol! He'd wait till I wasn't watching, then take a dump BESIDE the bathroom door...you know, to teach me a lesson. So. No judgments from me on how old your boys were.
Should have waited an hour after lunch, before reading this review.
What the hell, is your second son secretly a cat? My cat used to shit in the middle of the kitchen whenever she finally got sick of her litter box being a turd-filled wasteland.
It cracks me up how we've resurrected this 3-year-old review of yours, Anne. Blame karen and her review of Who Did It?: Who Farted? Who Burped? Who Pooped? Who Peed? Who Sneezed?. Hope all your kids are past this phase now!

I don't know what the hell he was thinking, Mike. I caught him shitting behind the tv (we had one of those giant projection screen things, at the time) too.
He was just pissed off that I would let him crap in a diaper. Aren't you and Sara going to want one of these little bastards soon? LOL!
Tadiana, it's so funny how these threads get recycled! I read karens' review the other day, and laughed my ass off! I love these kinds of children's book. And I still have our copy of this one!
The first issue of Deadpool vs. SHIELD will be the perfect capper on this thread.
I'll have to link that to our reviews! Oh wait, you can't link a thread, can you? :(
I can but it requires some Rube Goldberg contraption. Don't even mention Gifs to me. I've have to split the atom to do that.
What are you linking???? I think I'm still caught in the Matrix from that last book . . .
Anywho, type what you want inside a link code:
< a href = " url " > WHATEVERYOUWANTTOCALLIT < / a>
(delete the extra spaces to make it work)
I was talking about linking the 'thread', but not the review. Not sure if that's even an option?

I don't know either, but I'm pretty sure if you try it we'll go back to it being perpetually July 27th again.

The legend of Hulkboy continues. Don't want to play favorites with your kids, Anne, but it continues to be Hulkboy by a nose.
Hulkboy does do some mighty strange things. He's...special. Such a special little boy.
Kelly, I think I'd have to link the review, then add "um, check out the thread where we all share what disgusting little deviants our children were" beside it. LOL!
For the record, disgusting deviants aren't exclusive to childhood. I think Shallow Comics Reader club has critical mass of that particular mental defect.
Why does it not surprise me that Mike is having a poop discussion...
Yeah, we're kind of gross, occasionally. Except Sara. Sara seems too nice to be truly disgusting.
Hmmm.
Probably means she's just really good at sounding normal...
;)
Yes, but DOES everyone actually poop? What about the constipated? Or those with Colostomy Bags?
Pooping is a natural and beautiful thing...according to this little guide.
I guess you just have to grunt harder if you're constipated?
When I was put on pain meds after surgery, I didn't poop for like five days. It got terrifying - would I eventually just explode? Could I have another surgery, thus creating a perpetual medical cycle?
Ha! That's one of those scary stories you could tell around a campfire. Or an old folk's home.
l read this book but l don't want it anywhere near my shelf!!

LOL! I can definitely understand that!
1. I'm resurrecting this thread again. I can only imagine where it will go from here.
2. Y'all are hilarious, thank you for that.
3. Do you think this book helped your child? Or do you have any advice? My son turned 4 in June, and he still won't poop on the potty. There was a two month time period over last winter during which he was completely potty-trained. Pee, poop, all on the potty, all the time. Then he started regressing. Instead of pooping on the potty, he would poop on the floor next to the potty. Then he would poop on the floor anywhere in his bedroom (where we kept his potty to make it easier for him at nighttime). Then he would poop on the floor anywhere in the house. Then he started pooping his pants, wherever he happened to be when the urge struck. Then he decided he didn't want to pee on the potty anymore, either, so we resorted to putting him back in a diaper. Figured we would give him a few more months to sort it out and be a baby, then crack down over the summer. Well, I tried. I refused to let him wear a diaper. He didn't even wet the bed at night, so there was really no need for one. But he continued to poop himself. Then I went away for three weeks in July and my mother watched him. She simply didn't feel like dealing with finding poop around her house that had fallen out of his shorts, so she put him back in diapers. When I returned on July 30th, I cracked down again. No more diapers. But it got so freaking overwhelming, plus I was afraid to leave the house, that I made a deal with him. He's not allowed to wear diapers UNLESS he has to poop. He'll use the potty for pee all day, then will exhibit the signs when he has to poop (he still won't tell me), I'll put a diaper on him, he'll immediately poop in it, then I'll take it off and no more diapers until the next day at pooping time. He just started full-day preschool in September and it's worked so far -- no accidents. But believe me when I say it's driving me nuts, plus I simply cannot afford to keep buying my 4-year-old diapers. His father is away (has been for almost 4 years) and makes me feel like a horrible person for not having our son potty trained yet. I rarely in my whole life have ever been embarrassed, but I definitely find myself embarrassed when this comes up and people find out. I don't know what to do.
Anyway, sorry that was so long, but I had to vent, and am hoping you could tell me what worked for you. I scour the internet weekly and never find anything worthwhile.
Anne, it's a great review and I enjoyed reading it enormously.

Tempest, don't worry. He'll stop pooping his pants when he gets a bit older. He'll be too embarrassed to do it once he starts to have friends over or goes to school. I promise!
Adrian wrote: "Anne, it's a great review and I enjoyed reading it enormously."
Thanks, Adrian!
Cynthia, I don't think that's really fair. You (or I for that matter) can't possibly hope to know all about people's individual circumstances and the difficulties they face.
Um? Calm down, Cynthia. All my kids are ok. Even the one that used to shit her pants when she was three.

Yeah, potty training is different for every kid, and some of them are more i>stubborn than others. Sure, you want them to hurry up and train, but the reality is that NONE of them are going to be 16 and still crapping their pants. Peer pressure can be a beautiful thing. ;)
Thanks Anne. I think everyone learns when they're good and ready at their own pace. Hope you had a super Christmas and all the very best for 2017!

Yeah, I'm glad my kids are all older now. I haven't had to deal with this in years! Looking back on this review makes me laugh.
Your "review" of "Prolifiic Author" Gomi's book has a hyphenated word, a one word opinion on the illustrations ("semi-gross"), a one word opinion on your child's poop as "yum" and a , what, basically "Rant" about "potty-training" over-all opinion of what seems to be "Parenthood" while, very humorously ironic, look on your face grossly illustrating you missed the Writer's message entirely and somehow may be struggling (at least in that pic given that facial expression) with the mere mechanics of pooping. WOW!
