Editorial Reviews

04/01/2020

Gr 4–6—This series shines a spotlight on unusual careers that children might not understand. Many misconceptions are addressed and set straight: YouTube stars spend a lot of time and money on their videos; soldiers perform many types of jobs other than combat; the everyday life of a princess involves many rules and protocols she must follow; pro gamers often hold side jobs and must remember to exercise. The books do a good job of highlighting diversity in the fields by showcasing women gamers and non-European royals. A glossary, an index, resources, trivia, and an activity are included. VERDICT An informative look at unusual lives.
