Dear Miss Perfect: A Beast's Guide to Proper Behavior
Sandra Dutton, Writer & Illustrator
However beastly the problem, Miss Perfect has the answer.
What should an elephant do with his trunk at the dinner table?
Is it all right for a possum to hang upside down in her classroom?
And just where can a porcupine find a proper dancing partner?
A correspondent for the Beastly Gazette, Miss Perfect sets forth rules of behavior that can apply to just about any creature:
Say "I'm sorry" if you accidentally crush someone. Clean your room when asked. And never chew on your sister without first asking permission.
Readers will laugh at Miss Perfect's often surprising but always on-target advice, and find a kinship with the animals whose problems are not all that different from their own.
