Children's Literature - Vicki Coleman

Madeline is having a tea party for her friends. They are all excited and come wearing their Sunday best. They have to wait for one guest who when he arrives is not apologetic, nice or polite. He spits his tea all over the place then he spills everybody else's tea as he attempts to perform a magic trick. Madeline tells him that if he cannot behave properly he can leave and he is happy to do so. As he is leaving, he sees that Madeline's father has surprised her with a large cake. He is sad and upset; he cries and he wishes he had been nicer. Madeline comes to his house with a surprise and thus there is a wonderful conclusion to this book. Proper manners, not hurting others' feelings, and be nice are part of the story's message. This is a great early reader, and would even be a good choice to read to a younger child.
