4.0 out of 5 stars Grover's Guide to Good Manners
This book is a wonderful book to teach children, how to behave and how to respect and apprieciate their elders. After just reading the book once my children were saying "Please","Thank you" and "Your Welcome" all the time. This book is a must have in every household with children.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the best choice for teaching your toddler manners
The book introduces seven situations (including what to say after burping) and gives the "proper" response for each one.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the best choice for teaching your toddler manners, March 14, 2007
This review is from: Grover's Guide to Good Manners (Big Bird's Favorites Brd Bks) (Board book)
The book introduces seven situations (including what to say after burping) and gives the "proper" response for each one.

The situations are not the most relevant to a toddler's life (giving up your seat on a bus?), and the suggested responses are stilted (after bumping into someone, you're supposed to say "I beg your pardon, sir.").

This book is more about Sesame Street's familiar silliness than teaching practical politeness. For that, try Richard Scarry's Polite Elephant, also available in board book format.

I was very disappointed in this book; I expected more from Sesame Street.
