Summary

The title of this book is a great indicator to what the book is about--everybody works. In this book full of pictures of different types of workers, children can learn and see the many types of jobs that are out there. There are jobs for adults, children, even animals. Jobs can be creative, they can be fun, they can be hobbies, they can be to earn money, and they can even be volunteer work. Some people work in hospitals or at schools, outside or inside, and some people even travel. This book shows how people and animals can accomplish their own different work.

This book is for preschool aged children, and it is put together very well for that age. It is colorful, well laid-out, full of pictures, and overall just a very fun book. The pictures that this book contains are of all sorts of people doing the various jobs people may have.

Reaction

I think this is a great book for kids! It's very inviting--colorful and easy to read the text--and all-around fun to look at. It's also great because kids can learn all about jobs. There are so many different things people (and animals!) can do, and kids are actually able to see a lot of those in this book.

Recommendations

I would recommend any parent read this to their child and then have their child start to learn how to read it. It's easy enough for kids to learn and they'll love looking at each and every page within the book.
