So I was reading through my Emily Post’s Etiquette, the 14th Edition on gift giving.
I was going to a baby dedication and wanted to see of we are supposed to bring a gift or not. I mean I didn’t want to be rude.
So I read it, and yes I was supposed to. But then I continued reading the rest of the gift giving as it talked about weddings, anniversaries, baby showers, birthday parties, etc. As I read I noticed that Post kept mentioning one item as a suitable gift. And what was that gift?
A BOOK!
Yes, she says that a book is an acceptable gift for any occasion.
So there everyone! I have been Post approved. My idea of a book as a perfect gift is spot on.
So that is what everyone will be getting for their gifts. After all:
