Joy Says a Child Should Shouldn't Slurp

This is one of Joy Berry's "Survival Series for Kids" books and I have to confess that my son Devon and I like them all. I've had them in storage for years, way before Devon was a twinkle in my eye, or my gal Sara's, and I'm glad I saved them. In this book Ms. Berry and illustrator Bartholomew, with your help, will teach your child how to act and how not to act at the table. Your child will learn a bit about table manners in kind of a humerous way. Actually watching our son Devon eat is kind of humorous. He's approaching three and we read this book to him a lot and even at his early age, it has helped him get more of his food in his mouth than around it. In fact the other day were were at a friend's and he used a fork and spoon just like an adult and actually didn't spill hardly anything, we were so proud. Maybe his manners still need a bit of help, but this book will be there to help us teach him as he grows a bit older. Though this book was written over twenty years ago, it still stands up. The excellent comic book type illustrations will keep your child interested as you read along with him or her. And for the life of me I don't know why these books are not easier to get. Joy Berry is good for children, that's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. If you can get a hold of her books and share them with your child, you'll both be better for it.
