About the Item

Manners Begin at Breakfast Modern Etiquette for Families By: Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece Foreword by Tory Burch Introduction by Dr. Perri Klass Illustrations by Lydia Starkey The founder of a successful children’s clothing line, author of an influential parenting blog, and mother of five children, Marie-Chantal of Greece is constantly asked how she manages to do it all. So many of these queries—about proper etiquette for children in our fast paced, technology-centered world—led her to recognize the need for a modern handbook on children’s manners. Manners Begin at Breakfast addresses rules of etiquette, including table manners, social media, fashion dos and don’ts, and party conversation. Covering children from infants to teens, it is an essential guide for all parents keen to raise polite, well-rounded children, equipped to thrive in society and develop into confident, successful adults. Illustrated with charming, specially commissioned watercolors, featuring a foreword by designer Tory Burch and an introduction by leading pediatrician Dr. Perri Klass, and written in a lively, conversational style, it is certain to become a perennial, must-have parental resource. Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece, Crown Princess of Greece, is the founder and creative director of Marie-Chantal, a leading international childrenswear brand, and the author of a popular parenting blog. Born in London, and one of three sisters, she spent her early years in Hong Kong before attending schools in Switzerland and Paris. Her passion and aptitude for art and design then led her to New York City, where she studied both fields, at the New York Academy of Arts and New York University. She married Pavlos, Crown Prince of Greece, in 1995, and now they have five children: Maria-Olympia, Constantine Alexios, Achileas-Andreas, Odysseas Kimon, and Aristide. Tory Burch is an award-winning fashion designer, businesswoman, and philanthropist. Launched in 2004, her eponymous American lifestyle brand is now a global empire, with more than 250 stores worldwide. In 2009, she set up the Tory Burch Foundation, to support women entrepreneurs. She has three children. Dr. Perri Klass is a leading pediatrician and professor of journalism and pediatrics at New York University. She is also the national medical director of Reach Out and Read, a childhood literacy program in the US. A multi-award-winning author of numerous books on parenting and medicine, she writes a weekly column—“The Checkup”—for the New York Times science section. She has three children. Lydia Starkey is a London-based illustrator with a diverse skill set and an innate ability to bring ideas to life using hand-drawn watercolor painting and typography. She has collaborated with a global client base on a wide range of projects. She enjoyed experimenting with different mediums and teaching drawing and art to children in her free time.

  • Life at the Top Book by Kirk Henckels and Anne Walker
    By Anne Walker
    Located in New York, NY
    Life at the Top New York’s Most Exceptional Apartment Buildings By: Kirk Henckels and Anne Walker Photographs by Michel Arnaud There’s a parlor game that sophisticated New Yorkers have been playing since the Gilded Age: What are New York’s best apartment buildings? Before the turn of the (last) century, the Dakota and the Osborne were obvious answers; by the 1920s the list had grown to include McKim, Mead & White’s 998 Fifth, and the ultra-soigné 820 Fifth Avenue. The Roaring Twenties witnessed the construction of some of the most luxurious apartment buildings ever designed: 740 Park Avenue, the Art Deco–inspired River House, and Rosario Candela’s extraordinary 778 and 720 Park Avenue. Now, nearly 130 years after the Dakota’s cornerstone was laid, the New York skyline features numerous new palatial residential buildings, including Robert A. M. Stern’s 15 Central Park West, Richard Meier’s glass-walled Perry Street towers, and 432 Park Avenue, New York’s tallest residential building. Kirk Henckels and Anne Walker, real estate and architectural insiders, chronicle the fortunes and features of fifteen outstanding apartment houses, bringing them to life with evocative vintage photos of exterior and interior architectural details, as well photographs of chic New Yorkers at home in their elegant abodes by the likes of Beaton, Horst, and Aarons. Accompanied by Michel Arnaud’s expressive photographs and newly commissioned architectural plans, Henckels and Walker tour some of the most beautiful apartments in these buildings as they look today, designed by the talented hands of Robert Couturier, Michael S. Smith, Thomas Jayne, Katie Ridder, Markham Roberts...
