Rules of the World; An Unruly Book of Manners

Playing in the dirt, burping, leaving clothes scattered on the floor are fine behaviors -- IF you are an animal. But children should know better, and this delightfully funny book will show how their behavior should be different from the animals. Minnesotan Bridget Levin is the author, the quirky Lane Smith-style illustrations are by Amanda Shepherd. This was a finalist for the Minnesota Book Award in 2005.
