Review

This informative, user-friendly book provides students with basic
instruction on table, telephone, and letter-writing etiquette. Readers
are reminded of the importance of first impressions, shown how to make
proper introductions, and provided with guidelines on dealing with the
blind (but not the deaf) and people in wheelchairs. Combining common
sense and a philosophy that emphasizes consideration and respect for
others, Kid-Etiquette is a book that young people can read independently
or use as a basis for discussion with parents and peer groups.
Recommended.
