Summary: Great book to help 3 yr old understand manners
Comment: I have used other books to teach my 3 yr old manners (such as Dora's Book of Manners etc) however this book has really helped my son understand much more than just "please" and "thank you". The book even goes into "whining pests"! It is great.

Summary: PLEASE AND THANK YOU BOOK
Comment: I PURCHASED FOR MY 2 YEAR OLD GRANDSON. I THOUGHT IT WAS A LITTLE TO OLD FOR HIM. IT HAD A LOT OF WORDS AND YOU KNOW TODDLERS DON'T SIT STILL FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. IT IS A GOOD BOOK BUT FOR OLDER TODDLERS.

Summary: exactly what I expected
Comment: well, as the title of the book suggests, this is a book about good manners, being polite and what not.
My 2 year old girl likes it already, although I think it would be even better for older children, they could follow more easily the stories with their favourite characters from Richard Scarry (great drawings!!!).
There are 7 short stories, each of them dealing with a particular topic: how to behave at parties, or with your parents asking for help, or in the street, or with neighbors. all of them are nice and funny. Both boys and girls will enjoy them, also thanks to the brilliant pictures!

Summary: To Save for Toddler to Pre-School Years
Comment: Since it's difficult to get children to sit and read often, this book is a bit difficult without "real-life" situations and examples, so whenever I take my child out, I always try my best to make sure that she hears me say "please" and "thank-you" so she will learn those niceties as well as other cultural assistance that will make her a young lady throughout life even if life often doesn't accommodate. This book will be put up until she is ready for the harder concepts of visualization, until she can put reality together with the written word, but it is a WINNER!!!

Summary: Richard Scarry's Please and Thank-You Book
Comment: This book represents a childhood favorite of both my children. It is no longer available in book stores, so I was delighted to find used copies available so that I can buy it for my new grandson. So far I have been telling him the stories just from memory, but the original is priceless. We especially adore the "Pig Will, Pig Won't" story which teaches kids to have a positive attitude. The Pig Won't character is a wonderful example of what NOT to be, and is also great fun to imitate while reading the story.

Who will buy this book? "I will," says Pig Will.

"I won't," says Pig Won't.

So Pig Won't will miss all the fun.
