''After the success of their ingenious idea of matching pictures from Ladybird''s archive with prose that mocks the mores of modern life, they are bowing out with a bang with this compendium'' - Sunday Telegraph
From the people who gave you classics such as The Ladybird Book of The Hangover and The Ladybird Book of The Mid-Life Crisis, they bring you this collection of what could have been. Imagine a world where there aren''t just the thirty-two Ladybird Books for Grown-Ups you''ve seen in your local bookshop or downstairs toilet but hundreds and hundreds more...
In this coffee-table book you don''t have to, with never before seen covers, excerpts and paraphernalia from the archives, colourfully presented and helpfully divided into the following chapters:
- Fun & Games
- Adventure
- The World Around Us
- At Work
- At Home
- Coping
- Not Coping
- Giving Up
