Bad Manners, Benjie

Description

Boris has a new friend called Benji. He really likes Benji - but he doesn't like his manners at all! Benjie eats with his mouth closed, rather than slurping and slobbering. He doesn't try to do a bigger trouser trump than Boris. He even offers his seat to someone else on the bus! When Benjie uses a handkerchief to blow his nose, and doesn't even look to see what's inside it, enough is enough. Boris has to say something.
