This book is a crack up -- taking you inside the oddest jobs (that somebody's gotta do, but we just don't normally think about). Very clever and quick read. Would make a great "gag" gift for an adult (after you're done enjoying it, of course).

Very good pictures are in this book. The read on this book is fast and fun. There are occupations that I never knew even existed. Wish I could find one of these fun jobs. Not all the jobs described in this book are fun, but some-one has to do them.Over-all a Fun and light read.

Interesting book on jobs that you don't think about the people behind the scenes doing. It is a very quit read because each job has only a very brief history or description.
