Don't Dip Your Chips in Your Drink, Kate!

“Don’t dip your chips in your drink, Kate! Eat your cabbage before it goes cold. Don’t wipe your nose on your sleeve, Kate! Why can’t you do as you’re told?”

Poor Kate is being driven mad by her mum’s rules for good behaviour – so in desperation, she writes to the Queen, asking for help with her manners. But when the Queen invites her for tea, will Kate learn to be polite? Or will something wonderfully unexpected happen? Teaching key table manners whilst also delighting in sending them up, this anarchic rhyme brims with delicious chuckles. Illustrated with fantastically funny artwork, and full of cheeky ways to have fun with food, it will thrill any youngster who has ever been told off at the table!
