I have the Usborne 'jobs people do' book which is great-would definately recommend it, mine is so battered from all the kids 'reading' it!!! The book covers a farmer, chef, doctor, firefighter, teacher and vet.

Try this website for a few more ideas; it has lots of colouring pictures off all different people doing different jobs: http://www.coloring.ws/people.htm

I've posted a discount code for my site in the for sale forum. I've got a few people who help us puppets (http://www.babysigningstore.co.uk/people-help-glove-puppets-c-59_65.html) left.
