So you think potty training is tedious work? Think again!

Potty training can be fun. Author Joanna Cole and illustrator Maxie Chambliss help guide young girls through the process of potty training, by introducing a cute little girl in diapers:

Ashley is a girl just your age.
Ashley likes playing with toys and looking at books.
Do you like those things, too?
 
Detailed pictures of a playroom draw the child into the book. When Ashley needs her diaper changed, her mommy or daddy change it, ensuring that she is "clean and dry again."
 
One day, everything changes. Mommy and Daddy bring home a big box.
 
Do you know what was inside?
It was a new potty for Ashley.
 
Follow Ashley through the challenges of potty training. Frank language in easy-to-understand terms help children to relate to each step. It's a warm, sensitive book, and an invaluable help to parents and children facing this big step.
