Social Etiquette

Unspoken Social Rules & Etiquette is a guidebook for the modern age. Ever wonder why some people glare at you or what happened that someone won't return your calls? You probably violated a piece of our society's unwritten and unspoken social rules.

For the past one hundred years, Emily Post has been the definitive source for how to navigate—and enhance—every social interaction. In an increasingly diverse and intersectional world, the need for a trusted primer on how to treat others with confidence and kindness has never been greater.

Etiquette for Dummies approaches the subject from a practical point of view, throwing out the rulebook full of long, pointless lists. Instead, it sets up tough social situations and shows you how to navigate through them successfully, charming everyone with your politeness and social grace.

This audiobook introduces young children to the basics of polite and respectful behaviour through simple language, cheerful illustrations, and easy-to-follow examples.

Amour, anxiété, fous rires, larmes et jalousie : attache ta ceinture, car ce sont des montagnes russes d’émotions qui t’attendent dans ce tome-ci !

« J’ai chaud, j’ai la tête qui tourne et je sens la fameuse petite boule se former dans ma poitrine. Aaaah !!! Pas encore ! Je sais que c’est ridicule, que c’est juste un party et que ce n’est pas la fin du monde, mais mon anxiété s’en fout, elle, de ce que je pense. Elle m’écrase tranquillement, sournoisement, juste assez pour que je sois obligée de m’asseoir sur un banc pour reprendre mon souffle.

Après une pause bien méritée, je reviens en force avec un caractère encore plus aiguisé, des parenthèses encore plus éclatées, mais surtout, une confiance à tout casser. C'est fini le temps où moi, Maya Filion, je m'excusais d'exister. A partir de maintenant, c'est moi qui ai le contrôle : pas mon anxiété. Es-tu prêt(e) ? Parce que moi oui !

Mes objectifs pour cette année : Apprendre à gérer mon anxiété (ça presse !!!). Travailler ma patience (ne pas lancer mon téléphone au bout de mes bras). Ne pas hésiter à parler à ma mamie « dans les étoiles » quand Ça ne va pas. Essayer de ne pas tout faire foirer dans ma vie avec mes amis, mes parents et Anthony). Commencer à aller voir la psy…? Bien hâte de voir où ça va nous mener tout ça. À nous deux, secondaire 2!!!
