“In a time when couples aren’t introduced but instead search a database for desired attributes in a mate, when the family china is sold on Ebay and silverware is plastic, it’s such a delight to find that style, graciousness and manners still exist and breeding isn’t limited to designer dogs. Bernadette Watkins has created the gift that keeps on giving for children and adults, who despite the fast-paced nature of society today, do need manners to succeed.”
