Reviews

"A variety of important careers are organized into four different workplaces, including airports, zoos, movie sets, and hospitals. Each volume presents 10 to 12 unique roles, each requiring different skills, attributes, and interests. Basic information about each job is included in short chapters, which also identify new vocabulary and provide full-color photographs correlating with the text. These books adeptly highlight why all jobs in these settings--from custodians to air traffic controllers to doctors--make a positive impact on different industries and the people served by them. VERDICT Although this series provides basic introductory information, it serves as a great starter series for curious-minded beginning readers.--Natalie T. Romano, Denver Public Library, CO ""School Library Journal"""
