Description

A hilarious "how-to" guide to getting a job from the team behind How To Be a Baby, by Me, the Big Sister and How to Get Married, by Me, the Bride.

Another wonderfully original addition to the "how to" series, How To Get a Job, by Me, the Boss is packed full of useful information for young jobseekers, such as typical interview questions "Do you know how to use scissors" and "Can you dress yourself" and advice on what not to bring to interview: "Your whole family", "Your gerbils". With Sue Heap's wonderfully funny illustrations, and Sally Lloyd-Jones's witty no-nonsense approach to job hunting, every toddler should be confidently drafting their CV by the end of the book!

Reviews

Publishers Weekly, June 27, 2011:
"Heap's acrylic, paint, and crayon illustrations are as energetic and quirky as the Boss herself, whose charmingly askew perspective includes some genuine advice--and remains as funny as ever."
School Library Journal, August 2011:
"The illustrations are perfectly rendered in childlike acrylic paint and crayons and show the fun details of imaginative play on a rainy day. Fans of the previous titles will not be disappointed."
Zero to Eight (blog):
