This was a cute little etiquette book, full of witty little jokes about how to set the table when your butler is indisposed, or how to park your luxury helicopter when attending a friend's event. But these little jokes are mostly kept to a minimum, at the end of each chapter. For the most part, the advice is common sense stuff about how to treat other people with tact and consideration in order to show people that they have your attention and you have concern for them. How refreshingly sweet in this modern age of me ME MEMEMEME!

A cute, cheeky, and sometimes extravagant guide to common courtesy, manners, and civility. I love reading about proper etiquette and Mr Boddington made it fun! This book is easy to read, easy to reference and looks cute on a bookshelf too! Would make a great gift for a graduate or anyone who loves learning about this topic.

It's a cute book about social etiquette. It's very useful for any social gathering. I loved it, although I'm a bit unsatisfied about the contents. Some guides are a bit vague and too common.

Cute reference with amusing tongue-in-cheek bits throughout. Some categories were a bit vague and unhelpful.

I got this in a humble bundle. It was cute and I liked the illustrations a lot, but it would need a lot more detail to be actually useful.

Recommend to all ages to read. Never too late in life to brush up on your etiquette. Quick and fun read.

Good humored, and keeps things to the point. Adorable graphics throughout! Perhaps lacking in Day-to-Day however.
