Princess Marie Chantal's perennial, must-have parenting resource for the modern age, now fully revised and updated

The founder of a successful children's clothing line, author of an influential parenting blog, and mother of five children, Marie-Chantal of Greece is constantly asked how she manages to do it all. So many of these queriesβ€”about proper etiquette for children in our fast-paced, technology-centered worldβ€”led her to recognise the need for a modern handbook on children's manners.

First published in 2020, Manners Begin at Breakfast addresses rules of etiquette, including table manners, social media, fashion dos and don'ts, and party conversation. Covering children from infants to teens, it is an essential guide for all parents keen to raise polite, well-rounded children, equipped to thrive in society and develop into confident, successful adults.

This updated edition captivates and enlightens, adding new insights on parenting in a post-pandemic world. By popular demand, each chapter is now peppered with delightful anecdotes and personal stories from Marie-Chantal's experience putting her own advice into practice. Adorned with charming, specially commissioned illustrations and an introduction by leading paediatrician Dr. Perri Klass, Manners Begin at Breakfast is the quintessential guide to propriety for the modern family.
