Crossover

Daniel Handler's long piece in the New York Times book review about etiquette books for children did not escape my eagle eye.

I just wish he had written one instead of having to slog through the murk that most of the other ones seemed to produce. It is a difficult prospect, the manners for kids question, but there have been people taking stabs at it for centuries, you'd think they'd improve, not become more calcified.

And it isn't as if everyone's becoming more polite in the 21st Century.
