This is a great book for primary readers. It has some challenging words when reading the careers but that would be great for young kids to learn. The pictures are bright and really grab the readers attention. It is a positive representation of what kids can do, especially girls, in honor of women's month. This would be a good book for the classroom reading zone and there can also be another book about what boys can do or what anyone can do. It also includes the alphabet and another approach to teaching it. ( )

Lots of neat illustrations of diverse girls in diverse careers. Not a particularly fun book to read aloud, though. ( )

This colourful board book goes through an alphabet of work options available for girls when they grow up. I loved the diversity in this book, in the jobs explored and the girls pictured. There were jobs that are considered both male and female traditional jobs. Not only that, but the girls pictured were very diverse, showing not only various nationalities, but also there is even one in a wheelchair. As one would expect, this book goes through the alphabet, choosing one profession for each letter, something girls can aspire to be. Luckily there’s enough description and artwork to show what each job entails, otherwise it would be really hard for a parent to explain. My only question is that this is a board book, yet my two year old toddler, who loves boardbooks, was not interested in this at all. It seems to be geared to older girls, perhaps once they are in kindergarten or primary grades. This is a book that young girls could pour over and then ask a lot of questions about the various occupations. The publisher, Walter Foster Jr, generously provided me with a copy of this book upon request. The rating, ideas and opinions shared are my own.
