Manners

Teaching manners to children is a delicate process, made easier by this lively book. Page after page of playful vignettes and illustrations cover all the essentials: please and sorry, greetings, interrupting, answering the telephone, and so much more.

In the illustrations, children model how to behave — and how not to behave! There's so much packed in this book that we think it's best enjoyed a page or two at a time, to allow the gentle lessons to sink in and to offer opportunities to discuss the topics at a neutral time.

Presented with playful good humor that children respond well to. Paperback, 32 pages. Ages 5 and up.
