His name is Bob Dylan. Bob is rehearsing with his band. It takes a long time. First the band have to learn all of Bob's famous songs. Then Bob has to think of worse tunes he can sing over all of them.' __________________________________ 'Coldplay's singer Chris Martin has spent weeks working with an important stylist. They have come up with an exciting look for the band's new tour. 'These great clothes make me look really interesting,' thinks Chris as he sits down at the piano to practise another slow, sad song that gets slightly louder at the end.' __________________________________ 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.

I wanted to buy this for my step-son, who has his own avant-garde band, but I think he'd be offended. Jason and Joel are Rock Star names.

Paul McCartney will be headlining Glastonbury next year, and he will be arriving by Zeppelin. Led.

Jason and Joel are Rock Star names. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought as a present *by L***Y on 9 June 2021* It’s a book ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nostalgic fun *by F***T on 17 August 2018* This was bought as a present, but I love the nostalgia of the ladybird illustrations. I even recognised where some of them were originally used. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/49049724-people-at-work-the-rock-star-ladybirds-for-grown-ups](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/49049724-people-at-work-the-rock-star-ladybirds-for-grown-ups) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-09-30*
