This is a really excellent book. It's really well written, easy to understand and provides a practical path for families to follow. It specifically addresses many of the barriers that people commonly encounter with sensible solutions. It's the best book of its type that I've seen and I'd definitley recommend it. I really liked the way that it tackles a tricky subject while still being valuing, respectful and encouraging. Nic McKenzie

I highly recommend this book for parents of special needs children who need help with toilet training. It has given me a plan to follow. The sheets for photocopying are particularly useful. The anecdotes through the book help to remind me of how tough it is for other parents too.

Breaks down the skills necessary for toilet training. Very clear and hopefully useful to families. I intend to get my own copy so I can lend it out!
