Reviews

Community helpers at work are the subjects of this new educational First Facts series for grades K through 3, with a reading level for first and second grades. Readers are given the opportunity to follow a community worker during a typical day at work, whether they're farmers, firefighters, police officers, teacher or veterinarians. In A Day in the Life of a Dentist, cheerful Dr. Fong prepares for patients, performs checkups, makes model teeth and repairs teeth. The simple question-and-answer format makes this an effective learning tool, as do full-color photographs that give a friendly and realistic you are there perspective. An illustrated clock, table of contents, brief glossary, bibliography and index complete the learning experience. This series explores the standard Awareness of the Relationship Between Work and Learning as recommended by the National Career Development Guidelines: Standards and Benchmarks for Elementary School and Occupational Explorations.-- "Midwest Book Review"
