I was not a fan of this book at all. When picking it up I thought that it would be a great book to read to students in order to teach manners in the classroom, but I think that the way it is set up makes it very hard to follow along. There are too many small pictures on one page, which makes it very hard to stay focused when reading and therefore the message is not as meaningful. Parts of the book is set up like a graphic novel, which is great, but there are also words underneath the photos in addition to the scenario, which makes for too many words on one page, which can be overwhelming for a young student. The main message of this book is to teach good manners by giving readers many scenarios of how to use good manners. ( )

This books is a great one for kids since it comes with examples on how to complete each manner, and when to use it. It's so important to make sure students are minding their manners in the classroom! ( )
