Book Description
Winnie-the-Pooh knows that five minutes to eleven is when a Smackerel of Something should be served. And he knows the difference between a Proper Tea (which is what you'll get at Owl's house) and a Very Nearly Tea (which is one you forget about afterward). For those less versed in the Right Way of Doing Things comes this whimsical little etiquette book. On topics ranging from Conversation to Eating to Visiting, readers will be treated to - and instructed in - the finer points of life in the Hundred Acre Wood. Did you know that it isn't polite to ask for a bit of bread and honey, but it is perfectly acceptable to look wistfully in the direction of the cupboard? With wry humor and a point of view that could only come from a certain Enchanted Place, this irresistible little book is a must-read for fans of Our Bear. After all, it's the Proper Thing to Do!

Ladies' Book of Etiquette, and Manual of Politéness

Pages : 348
Book Description
Do unto others as you would others should do to you. You can never be rude if you bear the rule always in mind, for what lady likes to be treated rudely? True Christian politeness will always be the result of an unselfish regard for the feelings of others, and though you may err in the ceremonious points of etiquette, you will never be im polite. Politeness, founded upon such a rule, becomes the expression, in graceful manner, of social virtues. The spirit of politeness consists in a certain attention to forms and ceremonies, which are meant both to please others and ourselves, and to make others pleased with us ;a still clearer definition may be given by saying that politeness is goodness of heart put into daily practice; the.re can be no true, politeness without kindness, purity, singleness of heart, and sensibility. Many believe that politeness is but a mask worn in the world to conceal bad passions and impulses, and to make a show of possessing virtues not really existing in the heart; thus, that politeness is merely hypocrisy and dissimulation. Do not believe this; be certain that those who profess such a doctrine are practising themselves the deceit they condemn so much.
The A to Z of Modern Manners
Author: David MeagherPublisher: Random House Australia
ISBN: 0857983687
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Some clear guidelines to navigate a rapidly changing world. Why has ‘Mr Manners’, David Meagher, decided to write another book on the subject? He abhors crude and crass behaviour, yet found himself getting mad at others and teetering on the edge of becoming one of the ill-mannered people he so despised. So, instead of getting angry all the time – and risking becoming known as that crazy guy who yells out his car window at people – he decided the time was right to get back into the manners business. The A to Z of Modern Manners looks at the new forces shaping the way we live, as well as some old ones, and suggests the best ways to behave. It’s not about pointing the finger at people and calling out bad behaviour (okay, there’s a bit of that but he hasn’t named anyone); it’s about using common sense and thinking about how your actions might make other people feel in that situation. There is no right or wrong way to walk and text simultaneously. There is, however, a way to do it that will cause the least inconvenience for everyone else using the footpath. You can work out what form that takes by having a little empathy for your fellow humans. That’s just good manners.
