Kevin Christmann is the author behind Nervous Nolan Bison. He is a father, husband, and an IT Professional. Like many kids, his son loves animals; but what is not particularly common among kids is his son's favorite animal…a bison. As you might imagine, there aren’t a ton of children’s books about bison.
His son also loves to read, and they've had a lot of success reading books about many of life’s “firsts” with him. Combine that with the fact that they were having a little bit of a struggle with potty training (specifically #2), and one night he decided to write a story.
After a bit of research about self-publishing and finding an illustrator etc. he was able to make his vision come to life. He hopes to write more stories about Nervous Nolan’s other experiences.

Nervous Nolan Bison Goes Poopy on the Potty is an encouraging rhyming story. Kevin Christmann did a wonderful job of crafting this book for youngsters who may have trouble pooping on the potty. The story is engaging, educational, and entertaining. It's about Nolan, a tiny bison who is too nervous and scared to go poopy on the potty. Nolan loves diapers because they feel safe, but now that he has to poop, he wishes he had the courage to try the potty. Luckily, his mother offers him some encouraging words, and then his friend, Nina (a deer), tells him she doesn't wear diapers anymore. Their words motivate Nolan to be brave and overcome his fear. Nolan's accomplishment calls for a big celebration.
Nervous Nolan Bison Goes Poopy on the Potty is a great book encouraging little ones to try the potty. It shows children that being nervous is okay when going on the potty. It will convince them that pooping on the toilet is not scary as they may think it is, and they can try the potty at their own pace. Kevin Christmann's book contains vibrant, action-packed illustrations featuring activities that perfectly mix fun and learning. This rhyming story will capture any toddler's attention, especially those who love animals. It's a must-have for parents or grandparents having a bit of a struggle with potty training.
