The Wonderful World of Ladybird Books for Grown-Ups

'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.

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 ' I do not hasten to say that these books are the new Da Vinci Code.' Aisling Bea 'These books are small masterpieces. They make me glad I learned to read.' David Quantick ' HILARIOUS . Beserkly brilliant .' Mel Giedroyc
