Synopsis

Children are well-versed in the jobs of firemen and racecar drivers; What Do Grown-Ups Do All Day? inspires children to aspire. 

Children often think about what they will be when they grow up; beyond the traditional options of fireman or astronaut, What Do Grown-Ups Do All Day? depicts punk rock drummers, journalists, male nurses, bistro chefs, designers, and more. What Do Grown-Ups Do All Day? illustrates that anything is possible for girls and boys.

Looking at the adults around them, children curiously ponder possible professions. Father, mother, uncle, big sister: every family member serves as career inspiration. This is the new collaboration with Dawid Ryksi; What Do Grown-Ups Do All Day? provides children with creative fuel for professional daydreams and various career paths in Ryski’s iconic vintage style and easy to read aloud descriptions.
