One of the best books for preschool children ever written! I bought my first copy of this over 30 years ago when my firstborn was a little tyke, have bought this for a few other children, and just bought 2 more copies for my grandchildren. It is a book of manners, written with humor and sympathy, including adorably graphic illustrations of good and bad behavior. It includes Pig Will and Pig Won't, who teach children to be helpful rather than lazy; lessons about attending parties and saying please and thank you; bedtime behavior, etc. Very nice book.
I raised my children on Richard Scarry and wanted to lovingly share it with a new reader. I was pleased.

The author and illustration I think is great. I have had "What Do People Do All Day" which I have always loved because my children did also. Now my grandson's love it so I thought that maybe this book would be awsome also. I thought it was a good way to teach children good manners.
Definitely one of my favorites from childhood. Such great illustrations, I used to look at the pictures endlessly. Now I'm collecting the Scarry books for my daughter. She seems to have the same fascination with the illustrations! The please & thank you book in particular is great for teaching your children good manners.
My 3 year old son enjoys Lowly and his buddies, so this book really allows him to study each picture as I read to him the cute stories of putting others first and being considerate. I highly recommend this one for any child's library.
