Behaviour Matters: Rhino Learns to be Polite - A book about good manners
Sue Graves, Trevor Dunton
This funny, charming story is the perfect way to introduce young children to being polite, and help them understand the importance of using nice manners. Also included are suggestions for activities and ideas to talk through together to help children fully understand how their behaviour can impact on others.
Rhino does not have very nice manners, especially at the dinner table. But soon no one wants to sit near him at lunch time and he even misses out on tea at his friend’s house. It is time for Rhino to bring out his very best manners!
The Behaviour Matters series of picture books provide a gentle means of discussing emotions, boosting self-esteem and reinforcing good behaviour. Supports the Personal, Social and Emotional Development Area of Learning in the Early Years Foundation Stage, and is also suitable for use with children in KS1 and can be used to discuss values. Suitable for children under 5.

I liked that he learned to be polite and that he got invited to the party in the end because he said sorry. It was very very good.

He was being rude at the beginning but at the end he learned good manners. This meant he was able to go to his friends house for tea. His friend was called Lion. I didn’t have a favourite character, I liked them all. I would recommend this book to someone else.

The rhino was silly but he was learning to be nice to his friends and then they invited him to the party when he was nice

It was a very interesting book, as it teaches people to be polite. I liked lion the best, because he thought rhino a lesson, by not inviting him to his birthday party. I would recommend this book, as it gives people lessons on how to be polite. It is important the people learn the consequences of not being polite, as shown in this book.

Learned about manners

I liked it because everybody helped each other and in the end he learned to be polite. And it was full of animals and I love animals, but I didn't really like it because Rhino was a bit rude sometimes.

My favourite part was when the rhino comes to tea at lions house.
Doctor Cornelius Aardvark 04.01.2022
I liked ths book because I know that is is upsetting when others don't have good manners. I liked the end when Rhino went to tea at Lion's house and had very good manners. That made everyone happy.

This book is great because I read it and it was so nice. My favourite part was the end bit because he learnt to share. I think my teacher should read this book because she would love it.
