A Guide to Help Children Overcome Bedwetting

Overview

Written in a child-friendly tone that mirrors a one-on-one conversation with Dr. Bennett, this self-help guide is designed to help children (ages six to thirteen) conquer bedwetting. The book demystifies the problem and shows children that they are not the only ones who are affected. Cartoon characters Bladder Man (a superhero) and Nephron (his 9-year-old friend) put a humorous spin on the subject to help children identify with the subject. Each chapter includes a Q&A section to provide more detailed information for parents.

“Child-friendly language, real-life stories, humor and cartoons actively engage young participants in a program proven beneficial for 25 years.”  —Washington Parent

“At long last, a book has been published that recognizes the necessity of putting parents in partnership with their children to remedy bedwetting. Dr. Bennett has written a step-by-step program that he has used successfully for the past 25 years. There are real-life stories of other children, activities to teach children how their bodies work, and practical tips to help children and parents avoid the pitfalls of treatment. It is considered by far the best book that exists on this subject.”
