In Don’t Hold Your Sh** (also available in the kid-friendly censored alternative, Don’t Hold Your Poo-Poo), Adeniyi tells the story of Baby, who struggles with going poo-poo due to fear and anxiety.
By following Baby’s journey as she attempts to go #2, the book helps young readers struggling with “poop anxiety”. Poop anxiety, also known as stool withholding, is common among toddlers, who may resist pooping because they had a negative experience in the past.
For adult readers, Don’t Hold Your Sh** delivers important lessons about the importance of letting go of toxic or limiting ideas and behaviors to support mental health. Featuring characters from diverse backgrounds, the book also encourages empathy — because we all have problems letting go sometimes.
Don’t Hold Your Sh** and Don’t Hold Your Poo-Poo are currently available in hardcover, paperback and Kindle on Amazon and www.dontholdyoursh.com
