Gr 9 Up–Each book in this series focuses on a single college major and introduces a variety of professions within that field. The text clearly explains what people in these jobs do and the settings where they may work. The writing is clear and thorough, presented in longer paragraphs that provide detailed explanations rather than quick, dynamic facts. A standout feature is the inclusion of profiles of notable figures in each profession that trace their majors and career paths. Color photographs show professionals at work, while the overall graphic design supports the text rather than serving as an attention-grabbing element. VERDICT: A practical and informative series that will guide students in exploring both college majors and future careers.
