So, let's talk manners here....do you have good manners? Should you? Let us discuss. How about we begin at the dinner table. "What will happen to you if you talk while you chew?" Ah yes the mouth open to reveal chewed food manner issue. Sound like fun? Well, be careful you don't get a fit of the giggles and nearly "split in half." Let's not forget Principal Plunk who heads to the cafeteria for some, dare I say, delicious macaroni and cheese and he forgets to say the magic word. "A hush filled the room and everyone stared." This riotous collection of poems deals some fun about the importance of manners in every day places no matter how important you are. It's those little handshakes and pleases that make the world fun. Don't be late and please hang on to your underwear. The collection includes two short poetic stories about picky eaters and shoe polish in the bathtub done in graphic novel form and including just enough partial nudity to get the gigglers going. This is a great read aloud especially for a unit on manners and/or poetry. Ages 4-8 32 pages
