A Ladybird First Grown-Up Picture Book cover

From the phenomenon of 2016 comes a new nugget of wisdom in the record breaking Ladybirds for Grown Ups series.

THE PERFECT GIFT for all of the 'GROWN-UPS' still wondering what life is all about.

Talking about the farmer's market:

How much are these carrots?
What, per kilogram?
Each? Really? What does 'heritage' mean?
Could I just have an onion, then, please?
Oh. Do you take credit cards?

Talking about running:

Why am I running? Where am I going?
Do I want a longer life if I have to spend so much of it running?
Why aren't I at home? Am I running away from home? Am I scared of home? Why is my brain full of weird, horrible thoughts? Is it because running is so very, very boring?
Why did I forget my headphones?


This delightful book is the latest in the 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.
