In addition to the age-old question, What do I want to be when I grow up?, some teens also wonder how they can help others. That work is exactly the focus of these books in the Careers Making a Difference series (9 titles). Each volume starts with an awareness of a cause through quick facts, quotes, and charts. As it introduces a wide range of careers in the field, the text encourages teens to consider their skills in conjunction with the workplace environment (e.g., regular 9 5 hours vs. longer days). Additional chapters identify places for teens to volunteer to get first-hand experience, education and training needed, and salaries and job outlooks. Helping Animals targets traditional careers, such as veterinary and zoology, as well as those that involve helping animals indirectly, such as charity workers and park rangers. Accompanied by stock photos featuring people of various races, the books also include sidebars on famous people and legislation, QR codes linked to videos, guided questions, and more. A well-rounded series for exploring careers and compassion.
