The Office Reunion Is Happening, In A New Kids Book

The hugely popular TV comedy The Office finished its run after eight seasons–taking place over nine years–ending in 2013, but a new young generation of fans will soon be able to enjoy the antics of Michael Scott and his colleagues. There’s one difference however–it isn’t a new show, but a kids book titled The Office: A Day at Dunder Mifflin Elementary.,

The book is written by Robb Pearlman and illustrated by Melanie Demmer and is aimed at early elementary school-aged children. Instead of working at Dunder Mifflin Paper Company, Michael is a student at the school of the title, where he studies in Ms. Levinson’s class. He’s got “World’s Best Line Leader” printed on his water bottle and hangs out with his little buddies, who have familiar names likes Jim, Pam, Phyllis, Kevin, Oscar, and Angela.

According to Mashable, the book is packed with Office references and Easter eggs, meaning that Office-loving parents reading the book to their kids will get plenty out of it too. It won’t be published until October, but it can be pre-ordered here.

The Office is currently available to stream on Netflix, but in 2021 will move to NBC’s upcoming platform Peacock. In addition, it has been reported that NBC is looking to reboot the show. This week, actor John Krasinski, who played Jim, has stated that he would “absolutely love to do” an Office reunion.
