Etiquette Books

Es el libro de etiqueta por excelencia. Lo recomiendo, para todo aquel que desee estar actualizado, en la forma de comportarse, en diferentes ocasiones que la vida en sociedad pueda presentarle. Considero que es un libro realmente útil.

A excellent source of manner and etiquette reinforcement for teenagers, which explains the reasoning behind the "rules", parents expect teenagers to follow. Written in an easy to read format, in easily understood langauge. Highly recommended for the teen or preteen wanting to gain poise and self confidence.

Wedding Etiquette by Peggy Post proved a valuable complement to my Emily Post reference collection. This book was the only etiquette/planning book I purchased, information on every situation I encountered is included. From planning basics, what to expect from your parents, attendants and guests.

"Emily's Sharing and Caring Book" is a book designed to demonstrate these basic concepts to young children. It was written by Cindy Post Senning and Peggy Post (of the Emily Post Institute) and illustrated by Leo Landry. In the book, two friends are shown demonstrating ways to share and care for each other. The text is simple but sweet, and the illustrations drive the concepts. The book also includes a one-page "Dear Parents" note explaining the rationale.

If you or your kids like the Care Bears, then this is something you may like as well. Other than that, it's a nice book to teach basic concepts of empathy and manners to little kids, as well as anyone who enjoys looking at well-illustrated picture books.

The photos are beautiful, the book gives you a lot of ideas for themed parties and menus. The author also gives you step by step instructions and checklists for every party. It is a wonderful book and a must if you are in the business.

My four year old loves this story about a young girl trying to raise money for dance lessons. Estela is an independent, spirited little girl with a good heart. Our bedtime readings of this story has prompted meaningful discussions about empathy. It's a great book for your family collection.

This book presents a very current, accurate and insightful overview of Estonian culture. Each topic is presented clearly and concisely but in appropriate depth: land and people, values and attitudes, festivals and celebrations, making friends, daily life, time out, traveling, business briefing, communicating. The book is an excellent companion to travel guides like the Lonely Planet or Bradt series (which I also recommend). It is a must-read for anyone with more than a passing interest in this small but fascinating nation, and will be of great benefit to travelers and businesspeople planning to spend any appreciable time (read: more than a day or two) in Estonia.

Hi,

My name is Nora Aguirre, I took a course at NMSU: "Etiquette Dinner". Dr. Green advised us for buying the Emily Post's book if you want to learn more about good manners in everyplace. Great book!! It is so detail.
