Michael Scott is Line Leader at Dunder Mifflin Elementary! It's a very big job, but Michael is sure he can live up to the "World's Best Line Leader" title printed on his water bottle.

Filled with colorful, detailed illustrations and brimming with Easter eggs and nods to iconic moments from the show, this hilarious reimagining features a pint-sized cast.

The story will introduce The Office to a whole new generation and will teach them that everyone needs to ask for help sometimes. Even Line Leaders.

Review:

First, I'd like to thanks Hachette Book Group Canada for sending me a copy in exchange for an honest review!

Okay... I'll be the first to admit it, and I'm sure there are others out there. But I have never seen The Office! I know of the show, and it's widely popular, but I've never actually sat down to binge the show.

Back to this children's book though. The illustrations were AMAZING! Like taking the actual characters and turning them into a cartoon like style, was spot on! Also under the dust jacket, if you take a look at the hardcover designs...that was pretty awesome too!

This is definitely an interactive type book that could be read in a group out loud, or even one on one. I do think that there will be kids that won't understand since this show is meant for an older group, so really any adult will be able to connect the two.

I loved the aspects of the line leader, and the overall vibe of the book as it's in a school. I think if you read this to a class, they'd be able to link parts with what they really do in the classroom which is cool.

Overall, this was a cute and funny story. Definitely a quick read, and if you're an adult who is a fan of The Office, I mean... I'd still pick this book up to have!

That's all for my review, I hope you enjoyed it!

So until the next time, keep reading!

Your Graduated Bookworm! :)
