This engaging book will keep your children busy for hours.  Each page is filled to over flowing with information.

From the back of the book:
This entertaining book is all about the work people do in different sorts of jobs. Set on an imaginary island called Banilla, it introduces a crowd of interesting people and shows some of the events that happen in their daily lives. There is Mayor Naze, the mayor of Banilla; Ivor Hose, the fire chief and Penny Sillin, the doctor, as well as Manuel Laber, the builder; Honor Toze, the ballet dancer; Phillipa Pale, the dairywoman and lots of others.

Have fun exploring the island of Banilla and carefully examining each page to see the different jobs that people do in and around town.
