Help your child learn 'zee' importance of good manners! In the village of West Manor, you can stay, if you please, in a well-mannered town populated by Peas. All the natives are friendly---they go out of their way. When you stop to say, 'Thank you!' -- 'Why, you're welcome!' they'll say. In the village of South Boorish, on the North side of town, lives a rude population---the rudest around. They're, so very ill-mannered, such impolite Beans. If you stop to say, 'Thank you, ' they won't know what you mean! As these delightfully fun Peas and Beans head out to collect sunflower seeds, children discover that everyone wins when you learn to be polite and take turns. Sunday morning values, Saturday morning fun. Now that's the Big Idea! Through imaginative and innovative products, Zonderkidz is feeding young souls.
