|
A humorous look at toilet training. When Willie woke up he knew what he wanted to do, and it was urgent! A small boy wakes in the night to the horror of wanting desperately to do a wee. Panicking, he considers a number of options before remembering he is supposed to go to the toilet. Ball's manic illustrations and hilarious rhyming text make the serious subject of toilet training less formidable and even something to laugh about. Two-year-olds will empathise with and be reassured by the antics of Willie as he struggles to do the right thing. |

I'd heard about this book before we started toilet training, but completely forgot about it until we saw it in the library one day. And what a find! Written by the creator of Footrot Flats, this book has Balls' typical drawing style in it, combined with a rhyming story about a little boy (Willie) who needs to find the right place to do a wee-wee. My 2.5 year old had great laughs when Willie was deciding if peeing up the wall was the right place, and cheered when he found the toilet! This is not only a fantastic toilet training book, but it's also a funny book written by one of our beloved New Zealand cartoonists - and who among us doesn't like to support NZ writers and illustrators?! My rating: 9 out of 10 - definitely worth a read or three. |

This book was given to us when my baby was in hospital for her older sisters to read. Murray Ball has such a way with words and pictures that you cant help getting drawn into his world. The dedication especially makes the book special. It is easy to read and doesnt have complicated words in it. I believe that every child with Willie's problem can relate to this story. My 11 year old thinks its a good book for all ages and for a laugh, especially enjoying the illustrations. |
