5 STAR REVIEW:
REVIEW: J.R. Poulter’s tale of toilet-training in both humans and pets is a sheer delight …with bright and colorful illustrations. An entertaining read, educational in a feel-good way…I enjoyed reading Cuddle Kitten and Puddle Pup, and recommend it [for] young children up to 7 years of age.
