Reach for this book when your toddler or preschooler is beginning to navigate the social 'rules' of playdates, sharing, and daily routines. This classic guide uses the familiar, bustling world of Busytown to turn manners from chores into helpful habits. Through a series of short, humorous stories featuring Lowly Worm and Huckle Cat, children learn why saying please and thank you makes life smoother for everyone. The book covers a wide range of social situations, from table manners and safety to being a good guest and managing sibling squabbles. It is particularly effective for children aged 2 to 5 because it uses gentle humor and 'what not to do' examples to teach empathy without being preachy. Parents will appreciate how it frames kindness as a way to be a 'big kid' and a helpful member of the community.
