I just spent the last month in Potty World. Let me clarify…I just re-created something known as “Potty Kits” for my library system. I say re-created, because when I worked in Oregon, my friend and fellow librarian Laura in Hillsboro came up with this wonderful idea — put materials on potty training into a bag and circulate them. The Potty Kits are so incredibly popular that they are never on the shelf. So, get yourself a canvas bag (or waterproof is even better, something that wipes off easily), and make those Potty Kits. Ours have been available for 2 weeks now and not a single one is on the shelf. What, you may ask, is in a Potty Kit? The ones I just created have 5 picture books, a DVD, and a parent book. Of course the kits contain Everyone Poops by Gomi, and a new title that I think...
