The Story

A bunny wants his potty and skips to the loo, joined by a parade of characters — from a lonely dodo to an elephant in a tutu — until someone important turns out to be missing.

Why It's Special

For the toddler mid-potty-training who needs cheering, not lecturing, this turns the whole business into a party everyone's invited to.

  • Big idea: Using the potty isn't a chore to dread — it's something to celebrate, together.
  • Vibes: Bouncy, silly, rhyming, full of funny characters and party energy

Perfect For Kids Who

  • are working on potty training
  • love rhyming and rollicking rhythm
  • enjoy silly characters like Lord and Lady Huff Puff
  • like to guess who's missing from the page

Ask Your Little Reader

  • Story recall: Who are some of the characters that skip to the loo with Bunny?
  • Imagination: If you were going to the potty party, what silly costume would you wear like the elephant in her tutu?
  • Real-life connection: What do you do when you feel like you need to go to the potty?
  • Prediction: Who do you think Bunny notices is missing from the party?
  • Feelings & empathy: How do you think Bunny felt when he realized someone important wasn't there?
