And don’t dip your chips in your drink!
When Kate writes to the Queen asking for help with her table manners, she gets more than she bargained for!
Not only does her new friend ignore the long list of Royal Rules, she declares that they must eat “Pudding First!” What follows is a fabulously fun feast of royal proportions - and not a drop of etiquette in sight!
With a slightly cheeky ending, this silly story shows little ones how [not] to behave at the table while reminding us to enjoy our family food times!
