STARRED REVIEW - Booklist - Career-Ready Kids Series
The Career-Ready Kids series introduces the National Career Clusters Framework to kids, connecting skills and interests to potential vocations. Elementary students often have limited knowledge about the variety of work people do, and All About Career Clusters introduces readers to the Framework, which outlines a wide range of professional possibilities. Each subsequent title focuses on a group of affiliated occupations. Build and Move highlights construction and transportation jobs and expands traditional expectations by including positions like drone operator and supply-chain manager. Care for Communities covers customary areas like medicine, education, and law enforcement, but goes beyond doctor, teacher, and police officer to present nurse practitioner, library clerk, and crime-scene investigator. Create and Experience targets creatives and adventurers, suggesting careers in visual, performance, and literary arts and in curating experiences through hospitality and event planning. Titles in the series mention different levels of formal and practical education required, and children are encouraged to observe or experience areas of interest. Additional content includes diagrams sorted by area of interest, along with invitations to think, ask questions, and research further. Perfect for second grade and up, Career-Ready Kids reveals the possibilities awaiting every kid.
