When it comes too potty training. I have potty trained my first two
children using this method. It did take slightly over a week in both
cases (9 and 11 days) but that was probably due to my lack of commitment
and the presence of a 4month old baby rather than a fault of the
method. Gina Ford gives practical advice that obviously comes from a
wealth of experience on the run up to potty training. A very readable
and enjoyable book. The book contains a list of signs that a toddler is
ready to be trained

A friend passed this book onto me but we had no probs toilet training our son so i didnt really need it.
It
did have some handy tips, its pretty common sense. I think you could
find all the same information by using google! So im not sure I would
buy this book, but worth a read if you know someone with a copy!
I got this book after two friends recommended it to me – it is a nice
small book, easy to read and really just practical and easy to use, our
son was trained within the one week – worth a try for any parent =0)
i really got alot out of this book it didnt take a week but was very close! it did put us in right direction.
brought this 2nd hand off Trade Me as I expected problems training my
son but then had no problems!! It has some good suggestions if you do
have some problems but don’t think its really worth buying brand new.
