Social Graces,
This review is from: Social Graces: Manners, Conversation, and Charm for Today (Hardcover)
Once upon a time, children learned social skills around the family dining table. With today's busy schedules and often so many mothers working, families find less time for such traditions. Experts on hospitality and warm sociability, Ann Platz and Susan Wales provide readers with an easy-to-follow how-to manual of social graces. Learning the rules of etiquette is possible with Social Graces. This charming book makes life easier and more fun, and also helps instill a sense of self-confidence. Life is like a game, if you don't know the rules, you can't succeed in life. It's important to remember, however, that the rules of etiquette are of the book; manners are of the heart.

If anyone wants to 'polish up' their manners and etiquette. This book is highly recommended.
Well written, user friendly and beautifully illustrated. A book to be treasured. It is also a great book to pass down to your children.

Help for the Hillbilly,
By Cheri Winger (Hollister, Mo United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Social Graces: Manners, Conversation, and Charm for Today (Hardcover)
Social Graces was a big help in knowing how to tip waitresses, bell boys, ect... Working in a tourist town and knowing who to tip or not can sometimes be a concern for most people. Especially for those of us that don't get out of the hills much, so the book was very helpful. I would like to see more manner books on social conversation and answering gracefully in difficult situations. So keep writing Aunts! (You will understand that statement when you read the book!) Buy it today.
