Artist Lauren Radke's children's book Dinner with the Queen brings back Frog and his friends, colorful characters she has enjoyed creating for years. The idea sparked while constantly reminding one of her sons the need to keep his elbows off the table while eating as someday he may have dinner with an important dignitary. The endearing characters, Frog, and his friends, share examples of manners and being polite. Being polite is important around our friends and family as well, helping us fit in and gain acceptance by others. When to say sorry, excuse me and nice to meet you are a few examples of manners shared in the book. Also, our need for reminders about being polite is illustrated with the charming frog, mouse, and ladybug. A fun and colorful way to remind kids that everyone appreciates good manners. The simple, colorfully illustrated book is the third in a series of kindness, friendship, and acceptance. The charming, cheerful characters gently remind us of basic manners and examples of being polite. Having raised four boys and regularly surrounded by preschool grandchildren, Lauren knows the importance and necessity of regular reminders. Everyone can benefit from these suggestions while reading Dinner with the Queen to their little ones, reinforcing the message. The amiable Frog, Mouse and Ladybug characters have existed for years and inspiring the development of the characters into simple stories with simple messages are her young grandchildren.
