"When I suggested to my friend Alex von Bidder
that we must put dogs in the Four Seasons
and create a book of manners for children,
he welcomed the idea – something only
a very special restaurateur would do!"

"Manners are about respect, consideration,
and care. By the end of the story,
Wiggens models manners beautifully."
