 Since when is RACISM good manners?
This book starts off like an innocuous book of basic etiquette and light-hearted humor, but when I came across a comment in the middle of the book stating that it was not polite to burp in public, "unless you're in Korea", and it's not good manners to slurp your food "unless you're in China", I really did a double take. This, in a book designed to teach children manners and proper behavior in our society? One might forgive comedians making racially derogatory remarks in an adult-themed monologue, but that was certainly not what a parent should expect, or accept, in a book written for their children. There's enough intolerance and bigotry in our world without books like this encouraging such attitudes.

 Includes some manners I had forgotten
This is a great book for kids as well as adults. It is well written with funny illustrations. I would recommend it and am planning on buying a few more for gifts.

Manners Manual for Kids & Parents
Very entertaining way to help your children learn how to be "polite". Excellent illustrations bring home the points of "Please, thank you, excuse me,".... and more. Fun to read and then discuss.

Everything I thought it would be ( nocreo )
I really enjoyed this book !! I bought it for my grandchildren but I may purchase another copy for myself. It was very easy to read, great illustrations and taught manners in a very positive and child-like way, without talking down to children. Kids will love it !!
