Inhaltsangabe

What if your garden was actually a fully staffed workplace - and every worm, beetle, and owl had a job title to prove it? The Secret Jobs of Backyard Creatures transforms the compost heap, the garden path, and the dark patch under the porch into the most hilariously documented workplace you've never noticed. Meet the Chief Soil Restructuring Officer tunnelling beneath your lawn, the Senior Overnight Surveillance Analyst blinking from the fence post, and 48 other backyard professionals who have been quietly on the clock this whole time. Designed for ages 6-10 and illustrated in warm, golden-age watercolour style, this large-format full-colour book is part field guide, part seek-and-find, and completely irresistible - for curious kids, nature lovers, and any adult who has ever wondered what a worm is really up to. 50 Creatures. 50 Ridiculous Job Titles. One Very Busy Backyard. Each of the 50 creature profiles spans a full two-page spread packed with naturalist field notes, visual jokes, callout observations, and hidden objects to hunt down. Creatures are organised across 7 Workplace Departments - from Dawn Patrol to Midnight Operations - following a full day in the life of a garden that never actually sleeps. Every job title is a real nod to what each creature genuinely does in nature. The Pollination Logistics Coordinator really does move pollen. The Decomposition Division really does break things down. The laughs come with genuine learning built right in - so kids absorb how the natural world works without ever feeling like they're being taught. A Seek-and-Find Book Disguised as a Field Guide Sharp-eyed readers will find three hidden objects on every spread, magnified detail panels that reward close looking, and cross-chapter creatures lurking in the background of scenes they don't officially belong in. Kids pore over the illustrations. They hunt for what they missed. They come back to the same page three times and still find something new. Funny Enough to Read Aloud. Rich Enough to Revisit. The jokes and riddles on every page are short, punchy, and built for ages 6 to 10 - kid-tested and parent-groan approved. They work equally well for solo readers discovering the book at their own pace and for family read-alouds where the grown-ups are laughing just as hard. With 50 fully self-contained creature profiles, there's no right order. Open anywhere. Every page delivers. What's Inside50 fully illustrated creature profiles, each across a two-page spread with job title, field notes, and visual jokes Golden-age watercolour artwork in a naturalist field guide style, designed to be pored over as much as read Hidden seek-and-find objects on every page, plus cross-chapter creatures hiding in the background Riddles and jokes throughout, built for ages 6-10 Specimen cards for every creature: common name, scientific name, and official job title For the Whole Family The seek-and-find works for ages 5 to 55. The jokes land for adults and kids alike. Read one creature at bedtime or get lost in an entire department on a rainy afternoon. The Secret Jobs of Backyard Creatures is the book that makes the garden feel like the most interesting place in the world - because it turns out, it always was.
