An adventurous child can't figure out why his behavior leaves him out in the cold when everyone else goes off to a party. Through poetry, bright illustrations and actions all his own, our child figures out behaviors that win him favors and friends. This is a perfect etiquette book for the beginning reader and family.

EXCERPT:
You ask me "please" to clean my room.
But I'm just too tired to lift a broom.
...I knew you'd understand.

My candy, my toys you tell me to share!
Them first, I say. It's only fair.
...I knew you'd understand.

Eat with my mouth closed, you beg!
Hey, slurping and smacking still gets me fed.
...I knew you'd understand.

I know there are times that I shouldn't run and shout.
But it's not my fault this behavior just sneaks out.
...I knew you'd understand.

So, I hurt your feelings with the fun that I was poking.
Geez, don't be so sensitive, I was only joking.
...I knew you'd understand.

Hey! Where's everyone going? Why are they so excited?
Wait! What about me? Why wasn't I invited?
I don't understand!

Don't you wonder if he learned his lesson?
