Never a Dull Moment with These Jobs!
You may think you have heard of just about every job that exists, but you haven’t—really! Because between these pages are many unbelievable things people do.
For instance, an Elephant Dresser designs elaborate, colorful costumes for pachyderms to wear. Or how about an Odor Tester who smells sweaty arm pits both before, and after, the use of deodorant to determine how well the product works.
The job of the Warden of the Swans requires catching every swan living near the English Windsor Castle. After you get ahold of them, each swan must be given a health check-up, marked when done and then set the elegant birds free. It is called Swan Upping!
Many more short explanations of surprising jobs, each with a fun illustration, await children as they thumb through giant pages. Sprinkled throughout the volume are a few “seek and find” objects and some “get you thinking questions”. It is fitting that such a big subject be packaged in an impressively oversized, hard-backed book that is nine by fifteen inches tall.
Be sure to get one for the young ones in your life. They’ll thank you for it once they can pull themselves away from pouring through the pages of this 5-star book. Elementary through middle-school aged children will enjoy all the things that people do.
