Dr. Perri Klass Manners Begin at Breakfast is the quintessential guide to propriety for the
modern family. The founder of a successful children’s clothing line author of an influential
parenting blog and mother of five children Marie-Chantal of Greece is constantly asked how
she manages to do it all. So many of these queries—about proper etiquette for children in our
fast-paced technology-centered world—led her to recognize the need for a modern handbook on
children’s manners. “Marie-Chantal Crown Princess of Greece knows a thing or two about
manners. (Queen Elizabeth II was a guest at her wedding.) But when it came to writing Manners
Begin at Breakfast: Modern Etiquette for Families she leaned on her experiences as a New
Yorker sister daughter mother of five and founder of an incredibly charming children’s line
as much as her decades of navigating royal politesse.” –Goop
