Reviews
K-Gr 2-Each spread in these informative books contains one to four sentences of large-print text and a full-color action photo. Models represent diverse racial backgrounds and varying ages. Information is sometimes too specific to be universally correct. For example, in Doctors, the author explains that doctors take patients' temperature and blood pressure, along with other tasks that are, in fact, commonly performed by nurses. In Librarians, an explanation of storyhour includes, "Everyone gets a chance to say what he or she liked best about the book." This may be true in some storyhours, but certainly not all. Later, readers learn that "The librarian likes to read." Computer use is mentioned, but audiovisual materials are referred to very briefly. Paramedics is the strongest of the three titles, as it includes photographs of specialized equipment in use. A "Be a Community Helper" section states, "Wear your seat belt in a car" and "Use sunscreen." Because the connection between these actions and the role of the paramedic is not explicitly stated, they seem random.
