by Tatiana Bell (Author)

Ever wondered what kids really think adulthood is like? Spoiler alert: it involves unlimited shopping, zero homework, driving cool cars, and making your own rules.
When I Grow Up is a hilarious and heartwarming poem that celebrates the wonderfully unrealistic expectations children have about adulthood. Packed with humor, imagination, and charming observations, it's a delightful reminder that every adult was once a kid with a grand plan.
Parents will find themselves laughing at every page, remembering their own childhood dreams while quietly wondering when exactly adulthood became a never-ending cycle of grocery shopping, paying bills, and searching for missing phone chargers.
Perfect for children, parents, and teachers, When I Grow Up sparks laughter, imagination, and meaningful conversations about growing up, responsibility, and the adventures that lie ahead.
--A delightful read for kids who can't wait to grow up
--And even funnier read for parents who wish someone had warned them not to rush.
Because growing up sounded a lot more glamorous when we were eight.
Warning: May cause spontaneous laughter, nostalgic sighs, and uncomfortable realization that kids think adults have everything figured out.
This book is dedicated to every child who can't wait to be a grown-up - and every parent wishing they weren't.
