Product Description "Please" and "thank you" are fun and easy to remember with Excuse Me!. Simple and repetitive, it's the perfect way to introduce those magic words that all little ones should know. From burping to breaking a sibling's toy, toddlers will love seeing these appealing babies in situations they know all about, and they'll have fun lifting the flaps to discover the right words to say-"Excuse me!" and "I'm sorry!" Customer reviews Very pleasant by .. Hugues (Washington, USA) This is a very pleasant book to learn important things, which 1-year old son my loves ! The drawings are cute.
Great for a two year old by .. Avid Reader in Maryland (Columbia, Maryland United States) This is an adorable book. The fact that it teaches manners is an added bonus. To me, the importance is that my two year old granddaughter can "read" it herself. At first I thought she could just give me the answers to the questions and that was cute enough. But then I overheard her "reading" it to her baby doll. What great self confidence this builds in a toddler. It is the best time to start building self esteem and making a child feel "smart".
1 1/2 year old's favorite book by .. A. Colyer () While I think the book will be terrific in a year to actually teach manners, at this point, my little guy is just entertained by the book. The pictures are simplistically expressive. He giggles every time we get to the second scenario (saying "Excuse me" when burping). He likes the participation of the turning pages. We typically end up reading this book 10 times a day, with my little fellow signing for more as I turn the last page....
What a wonderful world it would be if every child read this book! by .. Ann Clarke, children's book author (Florida) Just perfect for the Wee Ones. This little flap book shows the way to good manners without preaching. A perfect book delight any small child. Ann Clarke, author of People Are So Different! based on tolerance and understanding.
We LOVE this book! by .. Sedexis (Mesa, AZ) My daughter and I have been reading Karen Katz books together since she was able to sit up. This is an excellent addition to our collection! My daughter is now two-and-a-half, and she just LOVES the lift-a-flaps in these books. We have been working on manners, so this book is perfect. After reading these books a few times together, my daughter is able to read it back to me from memory, and she feels so proud when she finishes a book by herself. I highly recommend this and all of the Karen Katz books!!

 Author : Emilie Barnes Number of Pages : 32 Publisher : Harvest House Publishers List Price : $14.99 Amazon Price : $5.86 Used Price : $3.70 |
Product Description Aimed at girls six to ten, this book introduces children to basic good manners, explaining the "whys" as well as the "hows" and stressing a loving attitude over simply following rules. Like "Let's Have a Tea Party", this book is written from the point of view of Emilie Marie, a little girl who is basically Emilie as a child--passing along information Emilie has learned as an adult . Customer reviews Great book by .. (Canada) This is a very cute book. It is more for older kids than preschoolers (I bought it for my daughter who is 8) It was worth the money and my daughter enjoyed it very very much, she even brought it to school and the teacher loved it as well.
Sensitivity in text and illustrations = charming book by .. R. Tiedemann (Bellevue, NE USA) Dear Ms. Barnes, Thank you so very much for A LITTLE BOOK OF MANNERS: COURTESY AND KINDNESS FOR YOUNG LADIES. It has made all the difference in our lives. One evening my husband and I experienced one of the most embarrassing moments of our entire lives when we took our granddaughters out to dinner. I suddenly realized that they simply had not been taught some pretty basic manners. Modern parents are so busy with two careers and hectic schedules, I suppose. Imagine how thrilled I was to find this book and how even more delighted to discover that when they read it, both girls took the lessons to heart and began to practice them. It saved me the further embarrassment of telling their parents about the painful incident. You back me up on that one: "Don't point out other people's bad manners," -- remember? Of course, grandmothers have special advantages in that area, but tact and sometimes even reticence is often the better part of valor. "Five good reasons to write thank you notes!" and "The heart of all good manners is the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." What brave and wonderful things to write to youngsters in a society that sneers at manners and religion as "sentimental" and "old-fashioned." Because of the lessons here -- from thank you notes to how to entertain friends to telephone manners to introductions and party manners and more -- we are now proud to take the girls anywhere. Their introductions (which we had fun practicing) are truly graceful. Another very important point you make is to treat brothers and sisters like friends. That is, with respect. Practicing that one little idea can change the entire atmosphere in a home. Thank you, Emilie Barnes, for a very important book. This one was so successful for us that I bought the companion volume, A LITTLE BOOK OF MANNERS FOR BOYS and look forward to seeing equally triumphant results among our grandsons. Michel Sparks's illustrations are colorful and delightfully whimsical. The visual appeal and emphasis they add to the text makes this a very special book indeed. Thank you again for the lovely and sensitive addition to our children's library and to our lives.
I wish she would write a book for boys too. by .. Rebecca Johnson (Washington State) Excuse me, could I please tell you about a book I just read? Well, this is what Emilie Marie would say if she could walk off the pages and into your life. She also believes that the heart of all good manners is the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. This is a little girl you would happily invite over for a tea party!
This is just an enchanting book for helping young ladies learn courtesy and kindness. Emilie Marie introduces herself in a most polite way, then explains how her Aunt Evelyn has been helping her practice her manners.
This book helps girls to learn how to meet people, shake hands, answer the phone, be a good friend and so much more. I loved the section on the heart of Good Manners. I must say we adults could learn a few things from this book. Emilie Marie learns how to write thank you notes and how to answer invitations to a party.
To give this book to a little girl is also a way to give the gift of happiness to all those who know her. Michal Sparks has illustrated the pink and yellow pages in the most charming way possible. The blue bow on the cover is just adorable.
Thank you for reading my review and I really hope you will buy this book for someone you know. I bought it for my nieces and they love it. I must say they are turning out to be polite little ladies themselves.
It was so nice to meet you.
~The Rebecca Review
Lovely and effective! by .. () My child went from exhibiting the most atrocious of table manners to conducting herself at table with perfect grace! After reading this book, she was eager for opportunities to practice her new manners on the telephone and at the table. Knowing "the rules" made her feel confident. Framing the need to be respectful of grown-ups as an issue of manners rather than power has made her rethink her behavior at school as well. Granted, this book takes an old-fashioned approach to proper behaviors (it is, for example, gender-specific, as the title clearly shows), but it has affected the way my behavior-challenged 6-year-old (though it's geared toward a slightly older audience) thinks about her actions. The illustrations are beautiful, and the prose -- from the perspective of a fictive childhood Emilie Barnes -- engages the socially-conscious child's mind. I only wish there were more, and that boys could be privy to this way of thinking about social interactions as well.
The girls loved it! by .. () Manners are such a lost art! I used this well-written (and very cute) book to teach a class on manners to a group of girls. Needless to say, they had a blast while learning valuable information. I would highly recommend it for the little girls in your life.

Product Description Following up the popular title for girls, A Little Book of Manners, Bob and Emilie Barnes show special little boys in your life how good sportsmanship, table manners, and appropriate language create happy times. Lively illustrations by artist Michal Sparks will captivate your favorite little gentleman in the making. Customer reviews A book boys enjoy reading by .. shopperinSC () My sons are now 9 1/2, and discovered this book in their home library recently. I bought it three years ago, but they weren't too interested in it then. They LOVE the examples of what NOT to do/say, and it helps them remember the RIGHT thing to do/say. When we encounter a situation mentioned in the book, they recite the wrong and right approaches. They each read it independently, and we have 'reading time' when I read one chapter to them each evening (at their request!). The book also points out that there are times and places when it's ok to be a little gross among friends, but warns to look out for signs that you may have gone too far. It's good reinforcement to have someone other than parents making the same points about how to get along with others.
Etiquette for boys by .. M. Kamajian (Chicago, IL USA) Very well written. This book is more than just "good manners," but how to get along with others. Boys tend to resort to tough talk & rough behavior to establish respect. This book provides so many other, more civilized and mature options. I am glad to see this effort being made to increase the repertoire of actions available to our sons. It makes me hopeful that it will help reduce the violence among young men. It swritten in a way that would appeal to a young reader: not preachy.
Worth buying for 6-8 year olds by .. Pat from Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh, PA United States) Really taught great things for children 6-8. For anyone older than that, it was a bit too young.
Fab-u-lous Book to get Sons Interested in Manners. "What's manners, Mom?" by .. gohealthgirl.com (Oregon, USA) I have sons and the oldest was five when grandma gifted this book to him. With little brother just 5 years behind him, we have another wave of 'what's manners?' inquiries. A Little Book of Manners for Boys is more of a picture book that just gets them started. It's a nice 'coffee' table book for boys. I set it out before their acquaintences come over- not for my boys. No, no! Mine are well versed in appropriate manners. It's for those monsters that they have decided to tame. HA! My sons shall certainly save the world- one boy at a time.
Leave this around the house by .. S. O'Toole (Silver Spring, MD) Although this book was met with moans and groans, I notice my 10 year old picking it up and reading it when I left it around the house. It is pleasantly presented and contains basic rules of courtesy and friendship that every child should know about. Even if they've already been told these things, or they've already sort of figured some things out, it's nice to have a little book around to support what they've heard or learned.

 Author : Karen Santorum Edition : 1 Number of Pages : 407 Publisher : Intercollegiate Studies Institute List Price : $25.00 Amazon Price : $10.00 Used Price : $7.76 |
Product Description Karen Santorum has produced for parents and teachers a wonderfully rich volume that speaks to the regrettable fact that the subject of manners is not much discussed anymore. Mrs. Santorum has arranged a collection of stories an poems that will develop and enrich the moral imagination. Everyday Graces will be useful both as a bedside book and as a reference for home, school, and church library. Customer reviews Definitely a keeper by .. E. Evans (Seattle, WA) This book has some wonderful, beautiful gems in it. There were many poems and selections from books that I remember from my own childhood, but also some that I have never heard of. The book is mostly too old for my 2 1/2 year old daughters, but there are a few poems and selections that I can read to them and get their attention with. There aren't many pictures - I can't recall any, but think there might be a few small drawings. This is for children old enough to listen as you read aloud. I am thrilled to have this book on my shelf, where my children can read through and explore it when they get older. I appreciated that there was a mix of styles, from whimsical poems by Shel Silverstein to selections from Anne of Green Gables.
One of the greatest things about this book is that it calls one's attention to indispensable classics that parents may have forgotten, or never read before. I will be buying some of the books which selections were chosen from, and referring to this book as my children grow up to get ideas for stocking the family library.
I do have a few minor complaints. First, many selections are followed up by a 'moral' written in everyday language. I found this potentially trite and the points were overly belabored. Also, sometimes the switch in tone could be jarring after some of the selections. However, I think that these little notes will have the desired effect as long as I don't read them and just leave them for my children to discover when they are able to read for themselves. I'm hoping that they will come across as little treasures and surprises for my children to discover on their own.
Second, some of the selections came from novels and needed a lot of prefacing to explain their context, and even then seemed a bit disjointed. Most were fine, but occasionally I just felt like something was missing as I read the selection.
Don't be scared by who wrote it by .. Skoldamir (Sacramento, CA United States) Well, I am not a fan of Rick Santorum or the religious right but don't be turned off by the fact that this is written by his wife. This book is excellent at teaching morals in a comprehensive and fun way. There is nothing preachy or what I would consider religious but just straightforward healthy morals taught through excellent stories. Don't give it a second thought and just buy it.
What a delightful surprise by .. Valerie L. Criswell (Florence, SC United States) I bought this book because it was listed as a supplement to the preschool curriculum we're using (homeschool, Janet's Sonlight - Exploring God's World). When I first looked at it I thought this would bore my 3 year-old to bits but decided to to have a go anyways. We've only read the first dozen anecdotes but we both are in love with this book. I have had to bring some words down to his level and we skipped one that was over his head but overall he gets it. The hook here is the classic entertainment value of each little lesson morsel. My little guy laughed hysterically at the antics of the little boy who had to stand in the corner (I called it time-out), and he listened carefully as the blue fairy tried to get pinnochio to take his medicine and then as I read the importance of taking your medicine without complaining. GREAT stuff, and one of the reasons we homeschool. If the rest of the book holds the same level of value I'll read it through every year as its content and comprehension level is appropriate for any age child - and don't well all need reminding about how to be kind, polite people?
We Need Books Like This One by .. Joy () The real importance of this book is the concept behind it.
Children nowadays are not always taught basic manners and compassion and empathy for others. Mainstream news stories abound that there will be epidemic levels of upcoming generations that are narcissistic. During my childhood I learned moral lessons and empathy through series and books such as Pete and Penny, Little Visits with God, Keys for Kids, and Uncle Arthur. This type of entertaining-while-teaching text has all but been abandoned in the modern home, with Hollywood now acting as an unwitting moral compass.
Everyday Graces is not a book of etiquette a la Emily Post, but a book of entertaining stories and poetry that children and adults can read together and use to have open discussions about what is good and what is right. More books like this one are needed today. For that reason alone, and despite it containing some minor errors, it deserves five stars.
Beautiful, gentle way to teach everyday manners by .. Laura J. Southwick (North Ogden, Utah) I love this compilation. The stories and poems are just the right length to share with your children at bedtime or anytime. Beautiful, too. Makes a great gift.

Product Description For ages 4-8. They spit, scratch, and pick their teeth. The personification of bad manners, the Thingumajigs will entertain children with their whimsical appearance and silly expressions. At the same time, examples of good manners, found on each page, will inspire children to put forth their best behaviour. Customer reviews New Orleans Children's Home by .. Charlotte Fairchild (HIram, GA) I gave this book to a child named Nydia who had been neglected. She didn't use play dough until I gave her some, but she used what she had at hand. I never read this book to her, but I sent it through a social worker. I hope she got it and knew that I loved her in 1983. Neglected kids have a hard time learning manners. I think about her and wish I could have adopted her.
I grew up with this book by .. John D. Olsen (Logan, UT) This is one of my favorite books of all-time. I remember reading it as a child, and now, I use it to teach manners through puppet shows.
Maybe I'm being a a Thingumajig...but at least I'm being honest by .. Anonymous (Honolulu, HI United States) OK, I bought this based on the 15 other 5 star reviews. I just don't understand them. Yes, the concept is cute. But the book is so poorly written! I think it's confusing for young children who are just beginning to develop their capabilities for logic (I assume that is who it's geared for, since it's a board book). For starters, it's non-linear...on each page, it jumps back and forth between what not to do (the Thingumajigs) and what to do; between the third person "they" for Thingamajigs and the first person "I" for well-mannered children. But they have these silly drawings of perky children, which I assume is who supposedly is saying the parts on good manners, so it's confusing as to whether the perky children are saying they have good manners or the child you're reading to. Then, it's not really clear until the last page that these are behaviors you DON'T want your children engaging in. They make the drawings of the Thingumajigs quite entertaining, and the narrative is merely descriptive, without really stating "DON'T do this" so I suppose it's helpful to view the contrast, but really...I just want my kid not to pick her nose. Maybe I'm being nitpicky, but I don't think this is a great book for the younger crowd. My daughter is 4--she gets it, but I just was annoyed by the book.
excited by .. Dustin R. Sample (albia iowa) This book was a chilhood favorite of mine, so I was very excited to find it!
I am so happy to have found these books again! by .. Carina Collins (Los Angeles, CA.) My grandmother and I were recently discussing how she would read to all her grandchildren the "Thingumajig" books and how we all loved them. I am now 29 years old and still remember how vivid and wonderful they were. I just purchased them for my god sons, I hope they love them as much as I have.

Customer reviews Whoopi's Big Book of Manners by .. Barb P (Columbus, Ohio) I picked this up at the bookstore, just shopping for books for my 5 year old granddaughter. She and her mother read it together, and she loved it. She was so excited about it, that she brought it downstairs to "read" to me. The illustrations are great, and the surprise at the end really made her giggle. I highly recommend it.
My Review by .. Darrell E. Baty (America) It's a shame that we have people who look up to this person. After seeing the way she behaves herself on "The View" I've come to realize that she is nothing more than a racist pig.
Whoopi Goldberg by .. Little Lana (USA) Good book. Whoopi Goldberg has a way of talking that usually makes sense. Now that she's on "The View", it reminds me of her former talk show, that was a pleasant and enjoyable show. It's been interesting listening to Whoopi Goldberg talk about Hillary Clinton for President. Did you know that Hillary Clinton Earned more votes than any Presidential Primary candidate in the history of America?
Super Book by .. N. Marple () Whoopi got it right. I think young children today are NOT getting taught manners and many adults are losing the manners they were taught. Great book then to read to your children for their education and for adults a refresher.
Since when is RACISM good manners? by .. S. Kwong (CA, USA) 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.

Product Description From the sultan of silly comes a comical, kid-friendly guide to avoiding naughty behavior.The Toy Hog. The Blabbermouth. The Food Face, the Belcher, and (shudder) the Nose Picker. They're all here, and more - a veritable rogues' gallery of the rudest, crudest, meanest manners found wherever children slurp, grab, desert the table, or cut in line. With his trademark retro artwork and hilarious running commentary, Stoo Hample teaches children good manners by example - of what not to do - and bolsters his case with a final broad hint that the reader who fails to take heed may soon be the star of a book just like this one. Customer reviews review those manners by .. C. B. knox () My 5 year old grandaughter who mostly has good manners thought this book was hilarious and recognized many of the bad manners among those in her school and family! It gives us a reference to talk about those manners she can improve. I bought it to use at my school but decided that the fluff farts wouldn't work. I did show it around to teachers and all thought it was giggle material.
Hilarious!!! And with learning value!! by .. Nancy (West Coast FL) VERY amusing, FUN book for my two girls, 6 & 4. They loved everything from the different bad manners to the drawings (clever!) to the rhymes. My 6 yr old wanted to cover every detail (including drawings with notes) on each page. She wants her teacher to read it...the hesitation might be the nose-picker and the stinker, where the word 'fart' is used. However, to commend the author who must have written this in the 60's with this as a re-issue, it's not even offensive (as such things in kids' books are usually a turn-off to me). This book was a gift from Uncle, arrived yesterday and they haven't let go yet. We also pointed out together where their manners fall short. Really, the style is a piece of my own childhood, so enjoyable. Go for this one. Probably good to ages 10 at least! Stoo Hample's Book of Bad Manners

Product Description Plain and practical tips that will teach teenagers what manners really mean. Customer reviews A bit goody goody. by .. () I found this book in my brother's room and out of pure boredom decided to read some of it. I must say that this is not the kind of book most teenagers would actually pick up, buy, and read. This is the kind of book you must force your kid to read. Some of the things in it were Brady Bunch goody goody, and others just plain obvious or unstoppable (A.E. "Things to avoid while someone is talking" yawning or falling asleep...personally I think if you fall asleep when someone is talking it means that person is extremely boring or you are narcoleptic). I was not interested enough to finish the whole book, and the illustrations bothered me. I do not feel like Fred Hartley connected with me as the reader either. I give this book three stars, because some of the things in it might be worth reading. I would suggest you borrow it from the library though.
The Teenage Book of Manners...PLEASE! by .. Tina Cranford (Jackson,MS USA) This book is great. I used it to teach a manners course for 7th and 8th graders along with their Bible class. I will use it again this semester and hope to have the book available for each student next year. The students loved the book. I used my own transparencies to teach from the book. They had fun and always wanted to know on Thursday or Friday if we would start with manners. Those 2 days were manners days. The book was interesting to them and I used my own thoughts and teaching approach to reach the students. They practiced what they learned from introductions,telephone manners, table, dating, car, classroom and probably the most fun and importance to them was the emphasis I put into Personal Manners and Personal Values. I had two hairdressers come in to talk about personal care. Two students were picked by a drawing for a makeover. Also, another student went to a very formal dinner and told his mother he knew from "manners class" exactly what to do with the utensils on the table. Fred Hartley is to be commended for writing such a humorous approach to manners for teens. It absolutely fit exactly what I was looking for when I found it. It is also based on Scripture which makes it all the more important to me and to reach students that I teach.
Teen Manners book provides relaxed approach to manners. by .. () Fred Hartley writes in his introduction to the Teenage book of Manners that he would like to provide a simplistic approach to manners, a skill in which many teens are lacking. He does just that as he, along with help from his entire family, compiles various areas of etiquette, from basic introductions to eating to dating, into a short easy-to-read book. The book, which is slightly over 200 pages, is filled with humorous illustrations, and in less than two hours, can provide any teen with the foundation to become the next Mrs. (or Mr.) Manners. While the book ddoes not cover every subject in depth, it does try to touch on many different categories. Hartley writes the book using his family as examples and the constant use of "we" begins to wear thin the reader's nerves. A major downside of the book is it is written as if the reader was raised in an incredibly strong Christian based family with strict morals and values. Innumerable references to God and conducting your life around a certain faith's beliefs detracts immensly if the reader is not familiar with that faith. Overall, if the reader moves past the many colloquialisms and religious refrences, the guide offers a stron base for teenage etiquette.

Product Description Cookie Monster really wants a cookie. What's the magic word? Elmo knows! Toddlers will have loads of fun as they help Elmo think of the right words to say in Elmo's Good Manners Game. Customer reviews Not the best on the bookshelf by .. Puff Dotty (los angeles, ca United States) This is a cute, but less than ideal book of very simple manners for Sesame Street lovers. Unfortunately "Gimme cookie, please" is just the way Cookie Monster talks. It would've been a better lesson if someone could've said, "May I have a cookie please?" instead. I also thought the page where Grover and friends ask to be excused from the table - blissfully leaving a HUGE mess on it! - could've taught a better lesson if they had at least helped to clear the table a tiny bit. I'm sure there are better books of good manners for toddlers out there, just as cute and with better lessons. If your child likes Barney, I highly recommend "Barney Best Manners - Your Invitation To Fun" on DVD instead.
Cute and simple intro to manners, sort of. by .. frisky2000 (smallville) Since Elmo can do no wrong in our house, this book seemed like a natural pick to help introduce manners to our fussy two year old who likes things her way. She actually followed along when we read about teaching Cookie Monster to say please, but when it came to the part where Bert says, "How do you do?" to an octopus, I think it went over her head. Obviously the idea of learning basic manners early on is a great one, I just think the book didn't hit the mark squarely enough so that young ones can apply what they see and hear to their everyday activities. Better to have shown real life scenarios that a child can relate to when showing them how to behave politely.
"Thank you" and "excuse me" are also covered, so it doesn't miss the mark completely. And the large board book format is perfect for lap reading and rough little hands.
Gimmie Cookie Please! by .. AustinAng ((Outside of) Austin, TX USA) This book is my son's favorite bedtime book, as it has been for over a year now. This book has been instrumental in creating a good foundation of manners for my son. We also use this book to reinforce sign language for "Please" and "Thank You." Concerning the language used: If one reads Cookie Monster's request in the Cookie Monster voice, then children recognize the difference between human language and monster language. I highly suggest this book. It is a fast read with great results!
You can't lose with Elmo! by .. () My almost 10 month old son loves Elmo. But truthfully, I think he likes holding the book (great for diaper changes) more than he likes to hear it read to him. But I do use this book bedtime, and it works like a charm!
I love it and my son does too! by .. () This book is wonderful. Not only did it motivate my 2 year old to learn the words please and thank you, he seems to have learned alot more with his Sesame Street pals here. The picures are so vivid and life like (or should I say character like :>)we've used this book to identify his pals, learn body parts (where is Cookie Monsters eyes...) and learn colors. Great book at an amazingly low price!

Creative Coco (Saylorsburg, PA) My daughter loves the Grumpy Old Troll in the Dora stories. Books are always good for kids, especially if they like reading.

LOVE IT! by .. Kristin K. Rose (Lawton, Oklahoma USA) This is one of my daughter's favorite books! We read it very often, and she uses a lot of the information from it to help her with her manners. She says "denada" instead of "you're welcome" but she gets the sentiment which is great!
