RJ is making a lot of trips to his "time-out" chair! Without telling anyone, he and his best friend Sam decide to walk home from school instead of taking the bus. Later the two of them are caught trying to use Dad's computer to surf the Internet. After their piano lesson, RJ and his sister Blanche help themselves to a slice of their Mum's triple-layer double-chocolate cake and spoil Grandma's birthday surprise. Dad helps RJ learn how to start asking for permission before doing things and when RJ and Sam return to school their headmaster makes them practise apologising. RJ feels a lot happier when he says he's sorry to the bus driver and Grandma and he learns that asking permission will mean fewer trips to the time-out chair!This book is the third title in the Best Me I Can Be! series to teach children social skills that can make home life happier and school more successful.
