Praise and Reviews

Manners grease the wheels of society, allowing people to get along with one another by showing mutual respect - and that is no small thing! Manner-Man is a brightly illustrated, rhyming softcover children's picturebook by multiple award-winning children's author Sherrill S. Cannon, designed to teach little ones about standing up to bullies who say hurtful things, and about the positive power of polite behavior. "Elisabeth asked to use Manner-Man too / To help teach her friends to say 'please' and 'thank you.'" An upbeat story with a valuable lesson, Manner-Man is a choice pick especially for parents, babysitters, and preschool or grade-school educators to share with children.
