Books for reluctant potty trainer

[GenericUsername101]

Any recommendations for books or resources to encourage/reassure an almost 3yo who is not keen on potty training? He hates being naked on his bottom half and freaks out if I talk to him about going toilet/potty. He's not got any sn and is definitely beyond ready. Thanks!

Does he like any characters like Paw Patrol?

I'm not sure if I would get him any books though if he's so stressed. I'd let him choose sone "big boy pants" and if he's not keen say something like "you're 3 soon, all big boys use the toilet" smile and change the subject.

I'm having this EXACT issue with my DD who will be 3 in feb. Following for advice xx

He doesn't have to be naked on his bottom half if that doesn't work for him. I know the latest potty training craze book says that you need to have them half naked, but I've successfully potty trained many kids and always had them in joggers or leggings that are easy to pull up and down.

My daughter was over 3 before she'd try.

Once she did she cracked it in a day.

No nudity required.

I wouldn't worry about books. Will just add pressure/importance.

Thanks all. Just to update, I just went with it, doing the whole 'You're a big boy now so you can have big boy pants and don't need nappies, YAY!' and got him some red bus undies like his big brother. The first morning he was very reluctant and there were a few tears but seems like it was just fear/lack of confidence as we just pressed on and kept reassuring him and within a few days he was asking to go and now he's asking to go reliably and sometimes he'll even just go by himself. He's been wearing shorts but no undies to make it easier for him to undress. Back to being fully clothed now he's got the hang of it but I think we both just needed to take a deep breath and have confidence!
Regarding the being naked bit - with my DS1 we did it that way so it was the only way I knew worked really well, clearly there are different methods that work too :-)

Hello I know of a way that will help
