Even puppies need manners. Tux is just surprised by how much waiting is involved.
Tux is very good at being excited. Waiting? That may take a little more practice.
In TUX Learns… Manners, Tux discovers that good manners are not just for hoo-mans. When there is a treat to grab, a visitor to greet, a doorway to race through, or something irresistible on the ground, his puppy brain usually has one idea: GO!
With help from Big Guy and Mama, Tux begins trying something different. He practices waiting and listening, keeping all four paws on the floor when saying hello, taking turns, giving others a little space, and leaving things alone when he hears those mysterious words, “Leave it.”
Along the way, Tux makes an important discovery: sometimes being polite actually helps the good stuff happen.
Written with short sentences, gentle humor, colorful illustrations, and interactive Paw Questions, this playful read-aloud invites young children to notice familiar everyday manners right along with Tux.
Perfect for children ages 3–5, parents, grandparents, caregivers, and preschool classrooms.
