We’re all different from one another and come from a dizzying array of backgrounds and cultures. And while sometimes the rules and etiquette of a friend’s family makes sense, that’s not always the case. Readers will learn how to make others comfortable and make themselves comfortable with respect, an open mind, and kindness. This practical book offers options for navigating an array of tricky situations, such as when to take off your shoes, how to politely decline an offer of food, and what to wear to a formal event in a different culture.
