About the Book
We Don't Need No Stinkin' Manners! is a humorously charged, tongue-in-cheek look at the importance of manners. With a sprinkle of humor, the author approaches the subject of manners from a child's perspective. While many children understand the importance of manners, if given the chance, many would probably like to pretend that manners don’t exist-sometimes!
This group of rambunctious children demonstrates how much fun it would be to set manners aside. But parents, have no fear! The book begins with the children thumbing their noses at the importance of manners. However, in the end they come full circle, understanding that manners are in fact a very important part of their lives-every single day.
