Thirty-five insightful poems, flanked by "Morning" and "Night", take us into the lives of workers who do more than what the average observer sees. Tracy Vaughn Zimmer shows us a janitor who "senses all the secret wishes a building whispers in the night" and a baker whose "hands disappear and reappear in the folds of dough.

What kind of hands do you have? Perhaps you have been thinking about what your hands will be doing when they grow up.

What a terrific glimpse into people's working life. From Janitor to Babysitter, Organizer to Surgeon, this collection takes jobs and shines a light on them, making you see them in a new way.
