In an impolite town, an impolite girl learns the importance of saying “please” and having good manners.

Harriet is a stubborn child, who never says “please” and hates being asked to do so. Because of her rudeness she misses out on many wonderful things. She decides this isn’t fair and goes off to find a place where nobody ever says “please.” But in the town of Never-Say-Please, the townsfolk grab everything before she has a chance! Hungry and miserable, she climbs a fruit-laden apple tree, but a group of monkeys take all the apples. Harriet is exhausted and desperate. Will she finally agree to say “please?” The book is intended to show its young audience that manners are important and help make the world run smoothly.

Coral Walker—who now resides in a picturesque village near the River Taff in Cardiff, Wales—was raised in southern China. Writing and drawing have been two constant loves in her life. For many years, she juggled being a mother, a full-time academic teaching computer science, and an artist. She first ventured into children’s illustration to keep her own children entertained. Once she started, she couldn’t stop. Throughout the years, she has tried various mediums, including watercolor, acrylic, and oil painting.
