"When I grow up,
what shall I be?
Of all the many, many jobs,
which one will be the best for me?
pumpkin grower
dandelion blower"
The list goes on and on...all the exciting things that young children might find themselves being as they make their way through the days and years of the life they live. There is such fun in the language with its descriptive, rhythmic style. Because of the many rhyming words, early readers will love it and will soon be chanting the text with gusto.
The final spread opens to a collection of cute kids doing all those things that kids love to do...the job market is endless!
The illustrations burst with vibrant color and clearly show the many occupations this young lad has in mind for himself as he journeys through life. His rabbit pals never leave his side and make the work easier when the going gets tough. Some of the pictures are full of action and expression while others are quiet and sedate, all dependent on the task being described. The adventures will have kids making their own predictions for success in the future and then trying many of the suggested jobs just for fun.
Enjoy!
