* AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal:
** The wind-up penguins wear party hats.
** Magic Rabbit wears a bow tie.
** One toy penguin wears sunglasses and a pendant.
** One blob creature wears a crown.
* AerithAndBob: Some characters have proper names (e.g. Alan and Claude) while others are just named after their species (e.g. Giraffe, Robot, and Magic Rabbit).
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Alan keeps being distracted from his need to use the bathroom by seeing random things he wants.
* BarefootCartoonAnimal: One background cat wears overalls and no shoes.
* BlobMonster: The creature who wins third place in the dance-off is a red, amorphous blob.
* CallingYourBathroomBreaks: Alan says the title of the book three times over the course of the story.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Downplayed for Giraffe and Robot -- Alan's not really a CloudCuckoolander, but he's bad at prioritising, and would rather do things he enjoys than go to the bathroom even when he knows he needs to, so they try to get him to go to the bathroom instead.
* ADogNamedDog: Alan's friends are a giraffe named Giraffe and a robot named Robot.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: In Alan's first scene, he's happily yelling while riding a carnival ride, cementing his GenkiGuy persona.
* GenkiGirl: Or in this case, guy. Alan loves riding carnival rides and buying balloons and cake, to the point where even when he has to pee, he still wants to do them.
* HopeSpot: A doll offers her toilet, but it's too small for Alan to use.
* JarPotty: Zigzagged -- Alan tries to wee in a teapot, then a hat, but is stopped both times, but then [[spoiler:he does wee into a cup.]]
* KnottyTentacles: The toy snake in the bathroom line has tied himself into a knot.
* LivingToys: The characters are all sentient toys that live independently of humans.
* MistakenForToilet: Implied -- Robot tells Alan that the teapot is a "teapot, not a wee-pot" implying that Alan thought it was meant to be urinated into.
* NoNameGiven: The doll who offers her toilet to use is unnamed.
* PottyDance:
** Alan squirms when he needs to pee, to the point where he's mistaken for ''actually'' dancing several times.
** In the line for the boys' bathroom, there are nine toys, seven of which are squirming (the other two look unhappy but are staying still).
* PottyEmergency: When Alan gets to the bathroom line, he says he "can't wait" and decides to find a different toilet instead.
* PullARabbitOutOfMyHat: Parodied -- Magic Rabbit is an anthropomorphic toy rabbit who pulls ''himself'' out of a hat as a trick.
* {{Pun}}: At the end, Alan says that he needs a "wee" again, then yells, "Wee!" (as in, the exclamation) since he is on a Ferris wheel.
* RecurringExtra:
** The wind-up penguins from the line for the carnival ride (one of whom is named Claude) appear later having a birthday party, and then in the audience, and finally on the Ferris wheel. The toy tomato, cat, lion, dinosaur, and robot from the carnival ride line can also be seen in the audience.
** The bathroom line consists of a toy alien, an orange teddy bear, a small toy horse, an orange wind-up toy, a pink toy cat, an octopus-like toy, a black box-type toy, a red toy with springs, and a toy snake. All of them later show up in the audience.
** When Alan is about to wee in a teapot, some monkeys can be seen. The monkeys later appear on the Ferris wheel.
** The toy banana seen in the audience later shows up on the Ferris wheel.
* RightOnQueue: When Alan gets to the bathroom line, he decides the line is too long to wait.
* TitleDrop: Twice, Alan yells the book title and it takes up the whole page.
* VagueAge: Alan putting off going to the bathroom makes him seem like a little kid, but his being at the fair with only his friends seems to put him at around preteen age at the youngest, unless there's an IntergenerationalFriendship happening.
