Both…books are inscribed and signed by Leaf with sitck-figure drawings on the front end papers. Both books feature red and black & white drawings by Leaf on nearly every page. "Manners Can Be Fun" uses simple text and stick-figure drawings to teach kids the basics of etiquette and social behavior. Opening with the line "Having good manners is really just living with other people pleasantly," the book explains why being polite makes life better for everyone. "Grammar Can Be Fun" functions as a playful "grammar without tears" guide. It aims to teach proper speech and correct common grammatical errors to children without nagging. Munro Leaf was an American author and illustrator of children's literature who wrote and illustrated nearly 40 books during his 40-year career. He is globally recognized as the creator of "The Story of Ferdinand," a timeless juvenile classic. Condition: Both books are tightly bound with no cracks and no loose pages. All covers are firmly attached. Both books have an inscription by Munroe Leaf written in pen on the front end paper. Both books have clean text pages with no notable issues found.

MANNERS - heavy staining to the back cover; small stain spots on the front cover; some mild foxing on the end papers and pastedowns. Overall the lot is in Good- condition - the lot would grade higher if not for the staining on the back cover of "Manners. Munro Leaf (illustrator). Inscribed by Author(s).
