Illustrated by
Alexandra Boiger.
Four rambunctious children rebel when their mother introduces Emily Post's new 1922 etiquette book into their lives. Turning the tables, they embrace the letter of the law and insist that their mother do the same. Energetic, personality-plump illustrations vigorously depict the chaotic family. An appended "Meet Emily Post" page gives further details about her life and work.
