Continuing the success of How to Behave and Why-with hundreds of thousands of copies sold, 50,000 in the last year and a half alone!-comes another gem from the trove of Munro Leaf.

Considered his second most popular book, Manners Can Be Fun was first published in 1936 and is among Munro Leaf's acclaimed "Fun" series, which includes Grammar, Reading, and History. In his signature style of stick-figure illustrations and wholesome text, this charming guide, in which courtesy does not have to be a chore or a response to scolding, makes manners a delight to learn. With such characters as the Mefirsts and the Whineys, children can laugh while absorbing the elementary rules of thoughtfulness and etiquette. To listen, cooperate, act graciously, and share, among others, are invaluable lessons that should never be underestimated, and that help make happy, well-adjusted, and secure children who will one day grow up to be happy, well-adjusted, and secure adults.

Summary: Making Manners Fun
Comment: This is a book that made a strong impression on me as a child. There is nothing frightening or intimidating in it and it does encourage children toward some measure of civility. My grandson loved the book (he is six). His favorite characters are "Smash," "Rip," and "Ruin." He says, of course, that he does not approve of their conduct.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great little book on Manners
Comment: I am thrilled with the content and pictures in this realistic down-to-earth little paper back book. It is fun to read and put into practice even for the older kids above 7 years of age. I hope to purchase more books by Munro Leaf.

Summary: Family Favorite
Comment: Learning manners while cracking up?? Not impossible if you get this book. It is so funny - my girls, ages, 3 and 5, think is is great! We havent read it in a few months, yet today I told my 3 yr old that she needed to stop crying so much over little stuff & to save the tears for the big things. She started giggling and said that her crying was like one of the Whineys in the book. So, it does sink in, all the while lightening the mood. When a toddler is slightly irrational, its a great tactic to mention one of the silly characters in the book, and for me, it has turned the meltdown around. I cannot recommened it enough. Our school has it in the classrooms, and I have given it a bday gift - its so funny!
