Margaret Wise Brown's Manners (Little Golden Book)

Oh my goodness. Such a sweet book. The illustrations are so darling. My 13 month old absolutely loves this book. I like that it politely mentions that there’s two different ways to do things, without demanding that you do it a certain way. It’s my favorite little golden book and it might be my sons too.

Purchased for my 2 and 3.5 year old daughters. We are doing preschool from home due to Covid and I felt like we were missing out on learning social skills. This book REALLY hit home for my oldest daughter and she absolutely loves this book. She actually carries it around like a reference book and tries explaining to everyone different “manners” and if they are using them or not. The book is adorable and I believe I got it with a buy 3 get 1 free book promotion(usually little golden books like this are about $4.99). Every little one needs a book like this during these times I believe.

I love Margaret Wise Brown. And I found this new book to be very timely--especially with pages on how one should treat smaller/vulnerable people and how one should not. The whole book has great text about manners in general, but I was able to talk about compassion and character as well. (Love the Little Golden Books.)

Sometimes kids don’t want to be told to act right, but if the messages come from a book they can understand that other kids read these books too, and then they are more likely to comply with something like.... being silly vs being dangerous. Or greeting someone vs hiding away. The only reason I gave 4 stars is the last page which is a little confusing.

I really like this book, it helps parents and grandparents with educating our children on good and bad behavior. This book came to me in great condition, no signs of use or wear. The book has not been opened. I highly recommend this book!

The story is fine, but a bit vague for readers who need explicit instruction. Sadly, in our cop, Half of the pages are crisply printed and half are misprinted with misaligned ink.

This was a great gift for my soon to be born granddaughter. It was on the list of books my son and daughter-in-law made.

I gave this book to all three daughters who are having children of their own

An old favourite, so nicely written. A gentle message - we could all be more courteous and have good manners. I second that! Arrived quickly too. I recommend this timeless story.

Absolutely charming, our three children love this book and the beautiful illustrations, it prompts lots of discussions about manners. It’s a real family favourite

A fun little book - hopefully it will prove useful!

This is a lovely book with charming and beautiful illustrations

Hardcover would've been nicer. No complaints about the content though.
