School Library Journal Review

Gr 4--7--This series introduces a variety of popular career options through the lens of favorite activities like cooking, doing science experiments, taking care of animals, building things, keeping up with fashion trends, playing sports, being creative, and researching ways to mitigate the climate crisis. These books invite readers to be curious about different jobs using a "Clues and Investigation" format, where the clues are interests, abilities, and curiosities that are unique to each job and the investigation is a prompt to explore further (learn to sew, take animal training classes, try baking a cake on your own). Covering jobs like pet groomer, urban planner, solar photovoltaic installer, merchandiser, webmaster, chef, geologist, and recreation director, this series knocks it out of the park on multiple fronts. Not only are these books filled with useful information about lots of career choices but they are also filled with images that feature rich intersectional identities and expressions, including ability diversity. VERDICT This standout series is an all-around strong purchase for virtually any collection, but would especially benefit larger public library collections and elementary school libraries.
