[Ladybird Books for Grown-Ups 01] • The Ladybird Book of the Meeting

THE PERFECT GIFT for that colleague that loves to catch up, brainstorm, or touch base.

'People at work spend a lot of the day in meetings.

Meetings are important because they give everyone a chance to talk about work.

Which is easier than doing it.'

'Rudd attends meetings remotely from his home office.

He has three telephones, two Swiss desk intercoms, a fax machine and a wall-mounted theremin.

Sometimes nobody speaks to him for days.'

This delightful book is the latest in the 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.
