The US version of The Office has been turned into a forthcoming children’s book, due for release this autumn.
The Office: A Day at Dunder Mifflin Elementary follows a young Michael Scott on his journey to become the “World’s Best Line Leader” at school. “There’s just one problem,” reads a description of the book from publisher Little, Brown Young Readers. “Michael doesn’t know how to lead the line.”
Other characters from the show make an appearance in the 40-page hardcover book, including a bespectacled little Dwight (assistant to the Line Leader), and mini versions of Jim, Pam, Stanley, Phyllis, Meredith, Toby, Ryan and others.
The book’s written for kids 4 to 8, but apparently is full of references and Easter eggs that adult fans will enjoy.
The book will be released on 6th October.
