Toby is in trouble. His bed is always wet. But one night, Toby and his friend, Mr Beaver, find themselves in a flooded valley. Can they help before the village is washed away? Beautiful illustrations and an engaging story combine in a delightful book that children will love, and which will help young children to understand and overcome bedwetting in a stress-free and enjoyable way. Parents will seize on this in relief, as finally a book exists to deal with a common, yet distressing, childhood situation. "If he's used to hearing stories you make up, they can include symbolic representations of bedwetting, such as a flooded brook or overflowing spring that people have to control with a little boy's help." -- How to help a child who is wetting the bed, from A Guide to Child Health by Michaela Gloeckler & Wolfgang Goebel
