Great for kids and parents!

This audiobook was such a fun and helpful way to teach my kids about good manners. The tips are simple, clear, and easy to follow. My 7-year-old actually enjoyed listening and even started using what she learned right away. Highly recommend for any family!

Fantastic audiobook!

This is an excellent audiobook, especially for parents with young kids. It is written and read in a way that keeps your attention throughout. Includes great ideas and stories to help re-enforce integrity, manners and many more important things that seem to be eroding more and more of of late. Five stars all the way!

Perfect For Quick Lessons

I really did not know what to expect from this book but I am pleasantly surprised on how good these short stories are. I am looking forward to listening to this with my Nephew when he comes over next time because he is not a very good boy. This should catch his attention and help him focus.
