Product Info Reviews

Description:

Learning some pleases and thank yous is virtually painless when that beloved redheaded Parisian, Madeline, is doing the teaching. John Bemelmans Marciano, grandson of Madeline creator Ludwig Bemelmans, pens a politeness how-to book, based on the characters and setting of the original Madeline. Divided into chapters headed "Hello," "Please and Thank You," "Kindness and Consideration," etc., the book-in-verse spells out appropriate actions in varying situations:
If you do something you know is wrong
Such as going where you don't belong
Don't make it worse by telling lies;
Say you're sorry and apologize.
Marciano is witty in both word and picture, and young fans of Madeline will certainly get the message without feeling too much like Miss Clavel is shaking her finger at them. (Ages 4 to 7) --Emilie Coulter
