You remember your mom telling you to "Cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze," or "Say Please." Okay, what if you were sneezing into your friend's shirt, or asking someone to "please" put a bag over his head because you thought he was too ugly? You're still following the rules, right? RIGHT? It's a cute, breezy, misbehaving parody of children's etiquette books. It's a fun book for smart kids and light-hearted adults. The title of the book is Manners (This Book Does Not Teach Manners). Before your eyes, classic rules for behavior are transformed into silly, impolite, and just plain strange situations, all depicted in a series of oddly cute cartoon illustrations.
