Chatting Books Online Day 145. Today's recommended book is Tiffany's Table Manners for Teenagers. Written by Walter Hoving with drawings by Joe Eula.
Love this little book. It focuses mostly on the niceties of sharing a meal (of course, who would know more about place settings than Tiffany's ?). With short descriptions and delightful pencil sketch illustrations it makes sure your favorite teenager will appear refined at any meal. I even love the wording, (on moving the fork from plate to mouth): "Don't stick your elbow out and raise your whole arm like a derrick". And don't hold the knife and fork in this position (illustration) , it looks " unattractive and belligerent". There is just enough information to help anyone feel comfortable at a meal but not so much it feels overwhelming.
The book is hardcover , with 95 pages and sells for $17.99 a copy.
