How to Be a Vet : And Other Animal Jobs

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Sol Linero. This brisk, practical overview explores the required training, unique tools, and workplaces of veterinary practice. It also discusses other animal-related jobs, from farmers to wildlife rehabilitators. French doesn’t ignore the mental and emotional challenges involved but encourages children to volunteer or do further research if they’re considering animal-focused careers. Despite often-busy layouts, readers will discover much about what this occupation demands. High-contrast digital illustrations evoke midcentury poster art, depicting a diverse cast of professionals, children, and animals. Websites appended.
