Grown-ups Never Do That

Davide Cali and Benjamin Chaud deliver another rollicking, relatable tale that playfully pokes fun at the idea of perfect grown-ups. Through a series of humorous scenarios, the book illustrates that adults, too, can forget their manners, run late, or even burp. It's a fantastic way to normalize mistakes for children, fostering empathy and understanding that everyone, regardless of age, has their human moments. Ideal for ages 4-11, this book opens conversations about expectations, forgiveness, and the shared experience of imperfection, all wrapped in a genuinely funny package.

Forgetting to do chores? Running late? Burping? No adult would ever behave so poorly! At least, that's what you might think. But by the end of this outrageous, laugh-out-loud picture book from celebrated author-illustrator team Davide Cali and Benjamin Chaud, you'll know better. Unbelievable as it may seem, sometimes even grown-ups misbehave! The duo behind Junior Library Guild selection I Didn't Do My Homework Because . . . and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to School . . . are back with another relatable, rollicking tale, this time showcasing the humor—and the humanity—of the most important people in kids' lives.
