Etiquette guide for teenagers with handy examples and relevant advice. I give ita B. It's not very creative, but I don't know if you can get creative with that kind of a reference guide. The sample situations were good though. It seemed like it could touch base fairly well with a teenage audience, although i don't know a teenager who woudl be caught dead picking it up.

This is a great manners book for teens. It features pictures, tips, and teen-friendly wording. It was easy to understand, but still had good advice and lessons. It talked about what to do in interviews, mall manners, table etiquette. A very good read for those who need a manners brush-up!

Great reference book, although I believe manners begin at home. It's appalling how our youth show little respect to others. I partner with parents to help their children and youth recognize the importance of manners.
