Love the use of ridiculous scenarios to illustrate common courtesy and good manners. (Just after taking a big mouthful of pudding, a handsome prince rides up and asks you to be his princess. What do you do, dear? You swallow your pudding before you speak.) One day I at a bookstore I happened upon this book, and it's partner, and I was instantly brought back to my childhood. I had completely forgotten about them, but when I took them up and turned the pages, every picture jumped up as an old friend. I loved Sendak's wonderful illustrations as a kid, and they trigged a lot of thoughts. Needless to say, I bought them both at once. My son has loved them as well. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Originally published in 1961, What Do You Do, Dear? is the second manners guide created by author Sesyle Joslin and illustrator Maurice Sendak, following upon their earlier What Do You Say, Dear? (1958), which was chosen as a Caldecott Honor Book in 1959. It is a droll exploration of good manners, emphasizing through extraordinary and unusual story-lines, the proper course of conduct, in more mundane times. One presumes, after all, that it isn't bad manners to object, when being kidnapped! Otherwise, of course, quiet in the library is advisable. Recommended to Sendak fans, people who enjoy vintage picture-books (there is some socially outdated material here), or anyone looking for entertaining examinations of etiquette for young children. ( )
