Carreer Day,
This is the fourth book written by Anne Rockwell's about Mrs. Madoff's class. This multicultural career book has children introducing their parents' careers to the rest of the class. There is a wide variety of careers included not just the typical ones. There is an African-American mother who is a judge, a child's grandmother who is the school crossing guard, one dad is a paleontologist, a Hispanic dad is construction worker, an African-American mom is a nurse, and a mom who is a veterinarian. The characters cross different cultures and genders for the wide selection of careers chosen to be represented in this book. The illustrations are very colorful and each career is represented on two facing pages. The first page shows the child with their parent and a small picture portraying their profession. The next page shows that person working in their field of work. The text is written in a large font, which makes it easy to read.

Terrific book for the primary classroom,
I have used this book when doing a "Jobs in our Community" type unit with K and 1st graders. I like the many faces shown and the blurring of gender stereotyping in work. The text and illustrations are simple yet engaging.
