K-Gr 2-This series shows beginning and emergent readers how different jobs function and help society. Each book starts with a few "Words to Know" and ends with suggestions of other titles about the same career along with some pertinent websites and a short index. The titles are illustrated with crisp, color photos, which are paired with a few simple sentences describing the part of the job portrayed. The print is large and cleanly spaced. The books present some basic facts about each career with an emphasis on how it contributes to communities. For example, students learn that "Sanitation workers take away garbage. They help keep our streets and homes clean." Since no prior knowledge is necessary for understanding the information, this set will be useful in introductory career and/or society units.α(c) Copyright 2011.
