How it Works: The Student: (Ladybird For Grown-Ups) (Ladybirds for Grown-Ups)

by Jason Hazeley (Author), Joel Morris (Author)

Synopsis

The PERFECT GIFT for anyone yet to know the meaning of the words 'hard work'. __________________________________ This is a student. He is leaving home for the first time. By the time he graduates, he will be grown-up: exhausted, hideously in debt and unable to imagine going to bed sober. __________________________________ Reynard has brought everything he needs for his first year. He unpacks his fancy-dress costumes, his four-way extension leads, his pair of pants and all his didgeridoos. By doing front, back, inside-out front, inside-out back, and using Febreze and Imodium, he plans to make his pants last until half term. __________________________________ This delightful book is part of a series of Ladybird books which have been specially planned to help grown-ups with the world about them. The large clear script, the careful choice of words, the frequent repetition and the thoughtful matching of text with pictures all enable grown-ups to think they have taught themselves to cope. Featuring original Ladybird artwork alongside brilliantly funny, brand new text.

They have also written for the award-winning Murder in Successville, the award-winning Miranda, the award-winning Mitchell & Webb, the award-winning Armstrong & Miller and a long list of shows and people both award-winning and so-far-award-avoiding. They created and wrote the critically lauded but as yet un-awarded Angstroem for BBC Radio 4, and helped write both the award-winning Paddington movies.
