<DIV>For caregivers and parents with demanding schedules, finding time to teach or mentor children is increasingly difficult. While teaching professionals are relied upon to teach academic skills like reading, writing, and arithmetic, the importance of social skills is often overlooked. Learning social skills early, especially during childhood, can shape a child’s character and greatly impact his or her life. The Elegant Way Foundation’s vision is to teach, inspire, and motivate children to do well by doing good deeds. <I>Tame Your Manners</i> makes manners fun, meaningful, and most importantly, memorable. Any adult or child who reads this book will delight in the clever illustrations and correlations of animal characteristics to the manners advice. Phrases like “lions don’t need to roar,” “don’t be a whino rhino,” and “stand tall like a giraffe” will be forever fixed in a reader’s mind.</div>
