I cavalieri delle buone maniere

In a land far, far away, lived a group of people whose children were truly ill-mannered. They didn’t wash, never cleared the table, ate only candy—just to give you an idea. Desperate times call for desperate measures, thought their parents. So they decided to call the Knights of Good Manners to re-educate them in the most effective way possible. What they hadn’t considered was that they themselves might also need to be set straight.
A witty and ironic picture book that reminds us, with a smile, that maybe, after all, none of us is perfect.

Themes: good manners, educators, humanity.
