Uh
Oh! Gotta Go!
By Bob McGrath
"We’ve found that a little sense of
humor mixed with potty training goes a long way to relax both parent and child." |
|
| You learn how to meet the challenges of
children and growing up… with
patience and a smile! |
Jordan always waits
for the last minute. |
There he goes. |

 Even Queens have to go to the Toilet. |
Written by Bob McGrath, the 29-year veteran of
"Sesame Street," with whimsical illustrations by Shelley Dieterichs, this new
potty book features 27 humorous vignettes based on real life potty training experiences
involving Bob’s children or children of friends. Each vignette is designed to help
parents and children face the realities of toilet training with peace, whimsy and humor.
Caution: this is not your traditional potty book!
Bob McGrath, one of the original hosts on the multi-award winning
children’s series "Sesame Street" since its inception 29 years ago, is a
successful recording artist and concert performer, whose audiences now encompass two
generations of "Sesame Street" viewers. |
Potty training books-and there are many of them-are written with a story and a
message. UH OH! GOTTA GO! takes a novel
approach to this age-old problem for both parents and their children. This pottybook
contains a non-connected series of incidents…situations that occur with two to five
year olds and their parents all the time. Bob McGrath and his illustrator present them for
the youngster’s
enjoyment and subliminal connection. Barron's has teamed up with him
to publish what has become best seller in this field. With Bob McGrath’s
popularity from Sesame Street plus his unique approach to the subject, UH OH! GOTTA GO! is virtually guaranteed to peak
the interest of parents and grandparents of kids who are "in the process."
This full-color, hardcover book features 32 pages of marvelous illustrations
printed on heavy, glare-proof paper does not overwhelm the young "reader."
UH OH! GOTTA GO! is available in bulk or
in a colorful, convenient counter display which holds 8 copies. Put near a register, UH OH! GOTTA GO becomes a strong impulse sale
book. Stock up today! Potty training is not a seasonal business!

Service 1-800-645-3476 or call

REVIEWS:
"This cheerful book with its colorful and fun watercolor illustrations, will help
answer a variety of toilet training questions that will prompt lively discussions with
little readers."
"Valley Kids", Chicago
"Describing the book as a joyous look at something often taken much too seriously,
McGrath says he looked at other titles and decided that what was not needed was another
how-to manual and came up with a series of humorous vignettes all based on real life
situations involving his own children or children of friends. One of the reasons for the
humorous tack is his belief that when you take a lighter approach to things, you get there
a lot faster."
Publishers Weekly ABA Show June 15, l996
"The book shows there is no one way when it comes to toilet-training. This
underlying premise should work well as a springboard for discussions with young
readers/trainees."
