Sarah Dyer’s highly entertaining picture of the adult world of work through the eyes of a child is packed full of charm and humour. Her distinctive style, bold and strong with collage type pictures drawn in her favourite medium of pencil and crayon give the pictures texture and feeling. Children and adults will equally love the simple story that misconstrues the work of dad. Economical text provides an entertaining story for adults to read with younger children and emergent readers to pursue independently. There is plenty to inspire budding writers and illustrators, perhaps even workers until that is they see the very last page! - www.writeaway.org.uk
