"Written by a pediatrician, the fictionalized text creates a
positive partnership between children, parents, and physicians to
practice healthy eating and digestive habits....this book would be
welcomed by parents who face a similar situation or in doctors'
waiting rooms."—School Library Journal
"He seemed especially enthralled by the story of Coyote Bill and we
began using the metaphor often, encouraging our son to 'become the
boss of his poop.' Within a week of getting the book, along with
the help of some stool softener, our son’s fears diminished and he
began pooping normally again to everyone’s relief! A year and a
half later, this is still a favorite book of my son’s."—Addison

"Every child with toilet training trouble should see this
book!"—Allison Schonwald, MD, Pediatrician, Harvard Medical School,
author of The Pocket Idiot's Guide to Potty Training
Problems
"It Hurts When I Poop! is a wonderful book. My daughter runs a
little slow, digestion-wise, and is prone to tummy aches when she
holds everything in. Dr. Bennett's story provided her with
knowledge about her body, confidence in her intelligence, and a
plan to remedy the situation. I heartily recommend Dr. Bennett's
smart, playful treatment of a frustrating problem."—Mary Kay
Zuravleff, author of The Bowl is Already Broken
"This is a terrific book that will help children overcome the fears
they experience with using the potty. I highly recommend this book
and think it will be enthusiastically received by parents and
children alike."—Teri Crane, author of Potty Train Your Child
in Just One Day: Proven Secrets of the Potty Pro
"At last, someone has provided parents with a fun-filled,
non-threatening approach to help children who hold in their bowel
movements. Dr. Bennett’s book will be a permanent fixture in my
waiting room."—Benny Kerzner, MD, Chairman, Department of
Gastroenterology, Children’s National Medical Center
