Book Reviews of A Little Book of Manners: Courtesy & Kindness for Young Ladies

Book Review: A Little Book of Manners: Courtesy & Kindness for Young Ladies
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a terrific book. It covers many different areas, and offers terrific advice in each area. It also covers how to act in social situations, how to include others, and covers knowing when one's good manners stop them from blurting out what they think when it could hurt someone else feelings. It teaches how to be considerate of others, and their feelings, in different settings. It is very well written.

I can think of adults who could benefit from reading this book, too.

Manners seem to have gone by the wayside these days. Many parents don't teach manners or expect their kids to have them. It is a sad statement. This book is written gently, but clearly, and would be of benefit to own.

Summary of A Little Book of Manners: Courtesy & Kindness for Young Ladies

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 .
