Ladybird Book - The Student

The PERFECT GIFT for the ones who are yet to know the meaning of the words 'hard work'. in other words the back-to-schoolers and the university goers.


This is a student.

He is leaving home for the first time.

By the time he graduates, he will be grown-up: exhausted, hideously in debt and unable to imagine going to bed sober.


Reynard has brought everything he needs for his first year.

He unpacks his fancy-dress costumes, his four-way extension leads, his pair of pants and all his didgeridoos.

By doing front, back, inside-out front, inside-out back, and using Febreze and Imodium, he plans to make his pants last until half term.


This delightful book is part of a 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.
