it was amazing

It's considered corny to read books like this, but that kind of cynicism is ultimately limiting and counterproductive. My dad forced me to read this book and it was one of the main things that pushed me out of my shyness and made me an amicable person.

Patricia this is a book about common social interaction; or social interaction that has had its time of being common. Nowadays this book should be required junior high reading so people will grow up having some common decency, manners, and thoughtfulness towards others which would probably result in more social interactions improving dramatically.

i remember talking with a teenager about using common decency and common sense.....and she said she thought there was nothing common about them, or else more people would be using them.

i think this is an important book.
