Hi, Misty! We have this book. I’m trying to remember what ages they all were when we read it. We used it as a family read-aloud, and I’m guessing mine were about 12, 10, and 6 when we did it? I could be off a year or two. We just read and discussed and enjoyed it, discussing what we were reading about some but not too overtly. The good thing is it is a relatively engaging way to discuss good manners. We liked a little less that it had so many little chopped-up pieces of literature. And my boys groaned every time there was a selection from Anne of Green Gables, lol. But mostly we all liked it. Didn’t make us all perfectly mannered, lol, but I did think it was profitable to read and discuss.
