Worth Re-Reading

Adults and children alike may benefit from the object lessons provided in this book. Although she has limited her subject to interpersonal speech (this is NOT about media or communication technology) she has managed to provide a mulit-faceted view. Readers consider why it is innappropriate to talk too much as well as not at all, how to encourage friends to open up, how to speak to strangers, etc. Like most of Aliki's books, each scenario can be poured over. Children will enjoy exploring this book again and again. If there is a weakness it is that some of the subject matter is covered in Aliki's earlier book entitled Manners.
