About this title

From School Library Journal:

K-Gr 3--Three books about careers that feature readable and interesting texts that will be useful for reading aloud and assignments. The author discusses a routine day and gives brief explanations of required training and education. Special illustrated sections on tools, equipment and/or clothing, and brief histories are included. While similar in format and content to the "I Can Be" (Children's Press) and "What's It Like to Be" (Troll) series, these books will be more appealing and useful to younger children because they include clearer full-color photographs and have livelier texts. They do not include the specific details of the "I Want to Be" series (Harcourt), but they will satisfy the information needs of the intended audience.
