The best book for my daughter
My 19 months old daughter loves it and she likes to lift the flaps and finding animals so much!

really fun read
This book has been so entertaining for my newly potty trained daughter and her older sister who loves reading it with her. They laugh hysterically at the end. My two year old was still resisting going poop in the potty and I believe this book helped to change her mind.

Cute book for toddlers
My son is two years old, and he absolutely loves this book! When I ask him to chose a book to read, this one is always in the running. The title of the book "Where's the Poop" is not a phrase that is used throughout the book (as it would seem) But it is implied that parents can/should use the phrase when reading with their child. This book is definitely useful for potty training. In fact, so helpful that now my child is extremely curious when our cat goes to the bathroom in the liter box, or the dog going to the bathroom in the yard. It was almost like a light bulb went off, and my son realized that every living thing has a proper place for poop. Potty training is going very well, by the way. I highly recommend this book for children who are curious by nature. It definitely helped a lot with my son.

Creates a Teachable Moment
This book is great. It sets the stage for the potty talk. It shows that there is a proper place for each animal to go the bathroom, including people. It doesn't have the name recognition of "Everyone Poops," but it is also more subtle and offers a lesson at the end istead of random pictures and rhetorical questions.
If you're having trouble deciding between this and "Everyone Poops" buy THIS ONE. Where's the Poop is a fantastic book!

Great book
I was having a hard time getting my son to poop in the potty. This book was a hit! We were able to get him to use the potty on a regular basis just like the little boy in the book.

A Great Potty Book
This is an awesome potty book. It explains the mechanics of potty use, but in the eyes of a child. It is straight to the point, has beautiful illustrations, and encourages proper potty use. This book does a great job of encouraging a child to use the potty.

Inventive way to teach toddlers...
I loved "Where's the Poop?" In fact, my 40 year old son laughed the entire time he read it to our granddaughter of 17 months. Great idea of Markes and Hartung to write a book about common-everyday movements. The book teaches that every single living thing poops---Excellent excellent! Thank you and good luck to you both on future books to read in the "library." teehee

A favorite with some adjustments from Mommy
My 18 month old daughter loves this book. It's a big part of our "pre potty training" reading. She likes the flaps (though has torn a couple off) and definitely "gets it". It hasn't seemed to make her all that more interested in using her potty, but I think it's pretty good for our purposes. I do adjust the words a bit - I say "yes, that's right. Tigers poop and pee on the ground and bury it". If you were having issues with your child pooping in the potty (as I've read many do as part of this process) it makes sense to read the book as is. But for our pre-training purposes I wanted to include the pee part. I'd also recommend the Potty Book for Girls for anyone who's in the pre training process.

LOVE IT!
Great book! My son has had this book for months and reads it every time he goes on the potty. He loves lifting the flaps, and "reading" the book. Definitely worth the money!

Great interactive book
My son was having issues with pooping in the potty and this is one of the books I purchased. He loved lifting all the flaps to find the poop and read it over and over again. The book ends with two children using the potty which was a nice reminder for my son. Fun book for those getting ready to potty train or potty training.
