- GOVERNMENT THAT GOES MAD!
He would do things like burp, pick his nose etc and not use his manners. Nothing his parents or sister said to him made a difference in his attitude. One day at dinner time, his family decided to teach him a lesson. They began doing all those gross and annoying habits that Peter did. He decided that manners were important and he started to show good behavior and use good manners.
Terrible, Awful, Horrible Manners
They obviously know that doing those things without saying excuse was not a good thing. But they enjoyed the story. So this book definitely achieves the purpose of making kids aware of their behavior and using proper etiquette. My kids know to use their manners, but they were really amused by naughty Peter and his bad manners. Besides, we all need reinforcement, so this is a book we will read every so often to remind us what bad manners look like.
I would recommend this book to families with kids ages Mar 27, Melissa added it Shelves: This story is a cute, humorous attempt to teach children that using bad manners is not a good idea and great bridge to talking about manners. The illustration Terrible, Awful, Horrible Manners!
The illustrations were adorable. The book was a big hit at my house. I read it to my six year old daughter and she giggled the entire way through. If you are fussy and do not like references of toots, boogers, and burps I would say skip this book otherwise get this hysterical book and perform the sound effects with pride.
I feel would appeal to boys but as I said my daughter enjoyed it also. I would recommend this book to others! Dec 01, Jonita rated it really liked it. This story is aimed at year olds, and since I have a 4 year old and a six year old I thought that it was the perfect story to read to them!
In the book our main character, a monkey, is rude. He burps, he toots, he doesn't say "please" or "thank-you". My boys enjoyed how the story was resolved, and they enjoyed the cute pictures even though they were in black and white because that's the only option that my eReader has. After the story the boys could easily tell me what had happened and the p This story is aimed at year olds, and since I have a 4 year old and a six year old I thought that it was the perfect story to read to them!

An enjoyable story for young kids with a great lesson, although I would recommend it more for boys than girls. May 02, Habrewer rated it really liked it Shelves: He goes around burping and tooting all the time without worrying what people think or say. His parents decide to turn the tables on him at dinner one night and he is shocked by their behavior.
He resolves to try and do better when they explain that they were just doing what he did. This book has a cute little monkey that reminds me of typical little boys. It also shows them that this is not accepted behavior and that they need to learn to control their actions.
The book was fun and the illustrations were wonderful. Lilly thought that Pete the Monkey was silly. Jan 25, Sara Thompson rated it it was amazing Shelves: His poor manners got him attention and made him laugh until one day his family decided to act like Pete. This is a cute book and would be loved by most boys. Pete is loud and likes body noises which would appeal to the male persuasion. Some girls might enjoy Pete but they may be turned off by the burping and farting.
This would be a perfect pre-school or kindergarten library book. Dec 27, kelly Fuller rated it really liked it. I have to admit, I have the sense of humor of a 7 year old boy. I find toilet humor hilarious.
