Puffin, 1995
Absolutely delightful !
+ Cute way to learn manners + NBB-REVIEW
This book is beautifully illustrated with charming bear scenes. Acceptable behavior is explained in a sweet and entertaining manner.
As we read, my 4yo loves cooing at the bears, telling me what they are doing wrong and how they should be behaving.
I think it very important to teach manners ...
