Review by School Library Journal Review

Gr 6 Up--Popular hobbies and interests shine in this series about careers for readers who love video games, social media, animals, and music. Each of these well-organized books begins by introducing the history of each job, as well as the education, skills, personality, working conditions, and average starting pay for a variety of roles. Readers will learn what a typical workday looks like for jobs like professional gamer, drone pilot, quality assurance tester, marketing manager, content strategist, social media analyst, DJ, music producer, wildlife rehabilitator, animal control officer, veterinary technician, and more. What makes this series stand out is its analysis of how the pandemic has affected each of these fields and the future implications of those impacts. VERDICT A standout series that high school guidance counselors should consider for their collections.
