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!

UH OH! GOTTA GO! can be ordered wholesale or retail by calling Barron’s Educational Service 1-800-645-3476 or call your local book store.


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."
